I picked up a real leather sofa (for free!) back towards the tail end of last year, I was imagining it would be a nice sitting and contemplation spot for the garage, but it went moldy. So I didn’t sit on it much, and then I decided I wanted to re-cover the Land Rover steering where. As such the sofa is being broken up for it’s raw materials. I’ll aim to keep the bulk of it, all of the leather and wood, though probably not the cushion fillings and foam. I used a dilute bleach mixture to removed the mold and have left it all to dry. I plan on covering the steering wheel first off. Then probably making a touch holder for my maglite. I may set about covering the top bit of dash too.
I was given a cactus growing kit for Christmas, which stated that they needed 18°C to grow. So hence only now getting to it. First it was a case of adding water to the soil, they expended into something more recognisable as compost or peat. The seeds were mostly microscopic, and quite hard to plant “one seeds depth deep”. The instructions stated that cacti are slow growing so be patient.
I have set about beginning to gradually build Abigail a dolls house. I’m taking an iterative approach to it, I set about just creating a couple of floors and two walls, no windows or doors, to see how she likes it. I felt that she’d just want to play with it, regardless of whether I think it’s finished or not. So I did some building, then let her have it, and then next evening took it away and did some more building.
