I've been making all manner of arty, crafty things since I was little, and I still can't just sit still and let my hands do nothing, so I always have a number of projects on the go, from doll sculpting, miniature and full size costumes, to leather work, bone, wood, or paper mache sculpture, jewelery, and almost anything in between. needless to say sometimes it takes me awhile to finish things. I have just come off a one year carpentry course and am currently looking for a full time building apprenticeship, so I can become a qualified builder.
