    I made a pumpkin pie and an apple pie for Thanksgiving this year. I thought I would get creative, so I used my Star Wars cookie cutters for the dough! I think it turned out alright!

    Feel free to critique with helpful tips... This is my first oil painting ever and I'm still learning.

    It's hanging at her place and I haven't made it over to see it installed yet. I'm going to guess that she put screws in the sheetrock. :rolleyes:

    Thank you so much! Yes - I used a photo of my friend Jacob as a reference. I did not fully capture him which is sort of embarrassing actually, but I have some good excuses ;) My painting is quite small, probably around 8.5 x 11 so it was harder to get detail into that damn beanie of his, as well as this being my first go at oil painting. I can upload the photo if you want, but I have to be somewhere right now so it will be a bit later!

    My first foray into woodworking. I made this table for my dining room. It's maple. Started with rough cut lumber from a hardwoods place. Took way too long, but I'm pretty satisfied with the result.

    Sanded and oiled the pelican. Just to get an idea of what I still have to do, and to see what it'll look like polished. Couple more things to do before it's done.

    That's really cool, what kind of wood is that/what did you use to carve it?
