In keeping with my wee cottage earring theme I/we have decided it would be fun to make some small timber cottages out of salvaged timber. You can see from the opening and following photo I have cut some from a block of birch. Fiona and I have discussed the possibility of charring these.
Following are forms cut from salvaged and worn timber. We have discussed the possibility of applying and sanding back some paint on these.
When we were at Loch Fine we found a piece timber from a boat that was on the shore. We think the timber is red cedar. I have used part of the timber to make a quirky cheese board.
And talking of cottages - the northern wall of the cottage has been sealed with a coat of micro seal paint. The paint also covers a very poor harling job done in the past.
Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will be able to share photos of completed small cottages.
