Its ORC Week 5 and we are trudging along slowly but steadily. This week was mainly about buying and then learning how to operate power tools. After daily trips to our local hardware store we finally managed to put together a basic tool-kit which will allow us to complete our wall molding project. We also got the wood trims and we have mainly been cutting them to size. We still need to put them up on the wall but really hoping that we will be done with that by this week!!
As a break from wood working I am also completing a sketch to hang on the walls. I completed one a while back using charcoal on paper and working on the second one to have a pair to hang together. I am using Ikea frames and created mats using dollar tree sheets and a sharp paper knife, making the project very affordable. I think once framed they look quite good. I also plan to add leather straps to the top of the frames.
This week my plan is to complete the wall treatment and move onto the décor bit ( fingers crossed). I have a few things left to buy and plan to order them as well. I hope I have way more progress to share with you next week. Do checkout my instagram page olive_treeinteriors for updates and the ORC Blog page to see where everyone is at! Thanks for stopping by!
