Having fun





Here's what I've been doing for the past few weeks. I decided to challenge my leading skills with this project. This is the second time I made this peacock. The first time was in 2001. I used copper foil. This time I decided to redesign the face of the bird and the branches. I also wanted the face to look more realistic than the original. So far, I'm having a great time and it gives me chance to improve my skills. I'll update as the project progresses. Mounting this peacock will be another challenge as a large hole will need to be cut into a interior wall above the stairs (about 18 feet high). I'll also be making wood shutters and sill to simulate a window opening for the stained glass by making it appear to be outside. Please stay tuned.



On the gardening side of things. the bins I made last year are working very well. We have broccoli, lettuce, and carrots in the middle of winter!
