Today I made Totoro's bed.
It is orderd from Haruki,my son.
I made it which was near to his plan.

He seemed to be satisfied.
He played with his favorite dolls , 'Totoro and Sheep' , at once.

Painting log wall


Today I painted my house's log wall.
So, I discoverd cecada!
May be it has just hatched,because he didn't readily fly.


Painting log wall process

1. Drop a dirt of a wall with a dustcloth and a scrubbing brush.

2.Painting,painting.............

I become full of paint, and a hand and a face, clothes are stained, too

It is very hard work, but very important to keep good condition of wall. So, I have to carry it out every about 3years.

For bazaar


I made new wooden pots and dishes for kindergarten's bazzar.
I made pots by yellow cider, and dishes by pine tree.
Pot it is difficult to hollow , deep hollowing is not easy to keep my turnig wood's balance.
But pots are popular among children. Training hard, hollowingday!
