Pallet Wood Planter

It’s been two months since we moved so I really felt I needed to just make something rather than spend the time doing what we’d been doing for weeks, unpacking and tidying.  Plans for the garden dictated some planters so it seemed a good placeto start. With my limited funds, I love the idea of…

I didn’t go to @makerscentral this year and felt I didn’t go to @makerscentral this year and felt pretty gutted about it. 
However thanks to some fellow makers and friends I felt I was there in spirit at least with constant updates and nice photos of me using the filter I made 🥰
Big thanks to everybody who made me feel included and of course to the MC team and exhibitors who looked like they put on a brilliant show!
No filters next year if it’s on, I’ll be there!

Hey kids, isn’t it time for.....Woodworking!
My daughter is a big fan of Cbeebies Hey Duggee, almost as much as I am!
So I thought lets add a bit of duggee fun to the garden in the bamboo and made this fantastic little chew chew panda.
I use a lot of tools in this video but everything I use you could do with basic hand tools and a bit more patience!
