👍 [Rolife - Challenge & Achievement]Progress detective agency

Spend the whole afternoon working on the detective agency. I needed to make a pillow for the chair. Finally i was able to make a outside thst looked oke and when I wanted to add the stuffing i couldn’t find it. Either the dog ate it or it got between the garbage i threw in the bin :face_with_symbols_on_mouth:. So i added a book from a left over book nook. The chair took a long time. The glue wouldn’t stick. Then i remembered i had some stronger glue from a old kit and that worked. Not totally satified with the edges but it was the best i could do. Made the cap and the coat rack. Now diner and then to the theater

Thanks, i am surprising myself skill wise but still hate it when certain parts don’t work or get messed up. But hey it’s a learning process i guess.

I am the same way. I beat myself up when I don’t get something right, but always have to remind myself that I am learning a whole lot of new skills at the moment and will probably mess stuff up in the future no matter what.

Your chair looks really good! It would have been tricky to do with those curves! Amazing job! :clap:

It has a square piece of wood inside and on the side are 2 pieces of wood who are already shaped like that so i had to just glue the front and back on. The middle part was harder. I had to roll up apiece of cloth and glue it at the front and then glue the leather over it to get the round shape. That was a hard part to do
