The Stool I made long ago
This is a stool that I made long ago, when I was almost 10 years old, at a Wood Work course that we attended at L2L Academy where we learnt to make furniture (stools, chairs and tables,etc.) without nails and glue.
This demanded quite a lot of hard work and took more than 24 hours to make. I used to love my Stool but then it was very weak so it was retired to a corner of the house and we never used it.
A few weeks ago, I decided to show it to my little cousin and took it out. Upon assembling it, I realized what useful it was. I decided to knock in some nails and glue it together and find some use of it.
It took barely an hour to renew it. I made a polish of my own by mixing water, German glue and silver and copper colored dust together and painted it over. It looks great, and is useful too.
I'm glad I decided to do it!

Wow! It's interesting how you made some use out of the stool after not using it for a long time! :D And 24 hours? That IS a lot of hard work! :O What do you use it for now? :) You're brilliant at crafts (much better than I am anyway)! ^^
