The Saga of the Board, Part II
Well, I apologize for keeping you all in suspense for so long. Where was I? Oh yes, we had just arrived back at my place. At this point, as I mentioned, it is night time and we are famished. Fortunately, my husband had been to the local Farmer's Market and bought some good cheese for us to enjoy before we tackled this project.
So, after recharging our batteries with some good appetizers, we decided that we'd cut the boards first. We took them outside (so cold) and actually had a fairly easy time of cutting the boards. The asbestos was flying, but we managed to get that part done fairly quickly, what with the exacto knife and our "steady hands". Having accomplished this portion of the task, we decided to put the batting on mine, which was the larger of the two.
So, I break out the brand new staple gun and tell my husband (ol' thumbs) to load it. I noticed he was having some trouble, and he finally broke the news to us: we bought the wrong size staples. After arguing with him for awhile, we determined that he was right. In our defense, there was a couple in Home Depot who would NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY when we were looking at the staples, so our judgment could have been impaired by them.
Anyway, apparently I don't even OWN a regular stapler, (seriously?) so we had to run out to Walgreens and get the best stapler they had, which isn't saying much. We returned to my house ready to staple the batting on the board. As you can imagine, this is not as easy with a regular stapler as it would be with a staple gun, but we got it done.
We took a dinner break at some point, but basically worked on the board for most of the evening. Finally, at about 10:30, we had created a board to be proud of. Neither of us could actually believe it turned out as well as it did! I'd like to show you some pictures, but unfortunately my camera is broken, so I had to take photos with my phone and email them to myself, and they haven't come through yet, EVEN THOUGH I sent them over 36 hours ago. I will get them to you ASAP, as I know that you are all on the edge of your collective seats.
So, 8 hours, 3 lattes, 2 staplers, 1 asbestos board and much cursing later, I am the proud owner/c0-craftswoman of a french bulletin board. Is this the beginning of a new career?
