USING AN ARBOR DRILL PRESS TO MAKE WINDOWS/DOORS

Post by maria »

As many of you know, I'm deadly with an exacto knife when it comes to cutting windows and doors---I could use a scissor for cutting out a house--but oh those windows and doors---ta-da--thanks to great ADVICE from PAPERGLITTERGLUE DOT COM, I now have a arbor press, dies, etc. What a difference it makes. No excuses now....

My first house---a pattern from PAPERGLITTERGLUE DOT COM--i substituted a bay window--acetate windows from Paul; vintage deer----and so it begins...

Maria...

Good thing you posted this picture. I was just about to have Santa bring you a new box if bandaids for Christmas. Guess you won’t be needing them now that you’ve got the press up and running! Looking forward to seeing lots of houses fro you in 2019.

Merry Christmas

That is amazing, Maria. Your house is so beautiful in white. I love the little vintage deer. Thank you so much for mentioning me. But most of all I am so happy to see you making a house easily without hurting yourself (or others).
