Making Wind Chimes with Nadine and Noah

While Nadine and Noah were here we all made wind chimes! Nadine’s theme was gems and Noah’s theme went from arrows to Spiderman with a gun. Husband’s theme was a bumble bee and my theme was trees. We all picked out our wood, decorated them with some beads, strung some string, and put them all together. We had a good time and they sound really cool!

How to Fix Gaps in Intarsia

This video shows the technique I use to fix those unwanted gaps between pieces when making an intarsia. Most of the video is in real time to demonstrate how long it can take to fix a gap. Some tips I mention are: Using a regular blade (what I mean by that is one that is NOT modified geometry blade). The blade should have a thin kerf. And placing the piece that you want to remove material on the right side of the blade. Hope this is useful for someone!

Shark video

The shark pattern can be found at Intarsia Designs

 

Intarsia Shark

A friend of mine recently told me about a website called Intarsia Designs and this is where I found this shark pattern. Noah really likes sharks so I wanted to make this for him. I used different shades of blue pine, ebony, Oregon lilac, and walnut to make this project.

Psalm 148:7 (NCV) Praise the LORD from the earth, you large sea animals and all the oceans…

Making Wall Hangings with Nadine and Noah.

The grandkiddos, Nadine and Noah, are over for a few weeks for the summer! We made some projects using a walnut slab, driftwood, beads, mother of pearl, feather, sand, and lots of glue. We had a blast and the imaginations flew. We made a video to share with all of you.  

We put some verses on the back of our projects too. Since the walnut is so dark I didn’t transfer the verses to the back, I either wrote them out or put the address. Noah picked John 3:16-God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son so that whoever believes in him may not be lost, but have eternal life. Nadine picked Romans 3:23-  Everyone has sinned and fallen short of God’s glorious standard. And I picked Romans 16:19- All the believers have heard that you obey, so I am very happy because of you. But I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil.

Goodbye Newport Shop, Hello Prineville!

We not only emptied out the shop in Newport but closed up the big door and put carpet in it. So it is definitely not a shop anymore. Everything has been moved to the Prineville shop!!! We are still in the process of putting things away and organizing in the new shop but it is fully functional!!! We will be all moved to Prineville soon!!! I will miss the beach but Prineville is only 200 miles from Newport!!!

 

How did you put that on there? The Transfer Techniques I use.

I am asked quite frequently about how I transfer my logo and bible verses to the back of my projects. I made a video a while back about the heat transfer technique I use but I am going to show both the heat transfer and the lacquer thinner transfer techniques in this video. The video is long because I wanted to keep it in real time as much as possible to show how long it takes to do these transfers.

Some key points:

*Horizontally flip your image before printing if you need to. Sometimes it doesn’t matter but words will be backwards if you don’t.

*These techniques work with toner printed images. It does not work with ink. So a laser jet is what you want.

*The paper is plain old white copy paper, nothing special.
