Easel Hack

Last night after American Idol - Yes we are Idolaters!! - Lynda was painting and commented that she did not have anywhere to set her wet brushes down.

That set my mind in motion and set about to create something for her brushes that also looked good. A quick trip to the Thrift Store gave me a narrow vase. I used some old pine that I bored, cut and drilled to my specification. I sanded it down and gave it a quick coat of lacquer and attached it to the easel. It's a bit crude and I'm sure I could have done better if I wanted to spend more time on it.
