Creative Hobby and Crafts Forum

Hi Princess Megan Bella Rose,

Thats a huge array of hobbies you have, where do you find the time?

Personally I enjoy making things from wood. I make jigsaw puzzles, trucks and cars for my boys and birdtables for anyone who wants them. I am hoping to buy a wood lathe this month or the next and learn how to turn pens you can buy all sorts of exotic wood and the pen inserts from ebay for next to nothing and i never have enough pens to write with :D. I was a Maintenence Engineer for 13 years so used to work alot on metal lathes. When I had access to one I used to make miniature Cannons from the Napoleonic era which was fiddly but fun.

My girlfriend makes miniature food from clay for dolls houses, Its a new hobby but she is a natural. Our current project is a dolls house for our eldest niece but the weather has been rather unforgiving recently I'm hoping for a dry spell where I can get out to cut the house pieces so my girlfriend can do the painting.

Kind Regards

Nangwaya
