I've written a few previous posts about my family's tradition of creating handmade gifts for Christmas each year. Many times, the handmade gifts are the favorites of all gifts, including the store-bought ones.
This year, Sarah and I decided to donate a wooden music stand from MusicMakers to my daughter's 7th grade class as a raffle prize. I made one of these several years ago for my daughters so I was familiar with it as I started this one. Overall, the kit itself and the instructions are excellent. I broke the project up into two sessions so that I could do the bulk of the gluing on day one and then pretty much just assemble and sand on day two. This worked out great.
I've been working on a couple other things that I can't share just yet because I don't want to spoil anybody's surprise. I'll check in again after Christmas!
