Have you any wool?
I don't know if the question was "what should I do with the cedar paneling that came down in my home remodel" or "how do I store my wool roving," but here's the answer: a very green cedar sheep made from recycled cardboard tubing and cedar that also serves to repel moths.
I was excited to be able put my new router to work on this project and one of my favorite power tools, my jigsaw. A few coats of polyurethane only around the perimeter of the tubes enhanced the beauty of the cedar while retaining its moth deterrent properties inside the tubes. Using ebony stain instead of paint was perfect to preserve the beauty of the grain while adding color.
I'm in need of just a bit more wool storage. Any ideas?

Princess Bunny Chair
My overstuffed chair is no longer stuffed and I replaced the coffee table that no longer had a finish on it. I’ve
come to accept a little destruction in exchange for having free roaming bunnies. I really wouldn’t have it any other way, after all, house rabbits are exactly that,
house rabbits. But now I’ve made a move on
the offense, a chewable chair. Stormy
is my perching bunny even though she’s twelve years old. She’s also the chewer. So, just for you, Stormy, your very own
princess chair!
