My New Work Area


My back corner


I even have my " big girl chair" from 60 years ago to sit at my work bench.  Yes, I'm still painting everything blue!  I got a whole new gallon of blue paint.  I guess you would say blue is Brambly Pines signature color. 
 
Work bench that Chuck made me :-)

My Band Saw that I haven't seen in years!!!!

Brand new screw drivers!

Some more of MY tools!
Ever since the barn was built, I had in my dreams of having a work bench of my own in the back corner.  When we first moved up here, Chuck cleared a little area in that corner and I set up my sewing room there since there was no room for me to sew in the TT.  The only thing was...it was freezing in the winter and really hot in the summer, but hey, I had a space to sew!  Since we moved into the house, that corner has been used to store a couch, a TV, boxes and what ever else.  As we started cleaning out the barn, my dream was coming true.  Last week, Chuck went to town and bought a bunch of wood and some dry wall for several projects.  One, was my work bench.  He built it one morning and dug out my band saw. I hadn't seen it in three years.  I didn't even know where it was.  Now I have to get used to using it again.  I'm hoping to make gingerbread work for the front porch of the house.  It might take me awhile because I think I need to make something like 20 pieces of it.  Maybe I'll have them all done in the next couple of years. When we were in town last week, I got to pick out my very own tools at Lowes for over my work bench.  Now I don't have to go digging in Chuck's things to look for a hammer, screw driver or clamp.  I think I'm going to have some fun days down in the barn!
