bees, beds, and table

a little while back i had a furniture maker i know deisgn and make this new coffee table for the lounge room. this was the beginning of a new era - since then we have repainted and tidied up the whole house. and otto is there on the sofa.


love the table, good size, i just could not find one anywhere that i really likes and that fit the space. bespoke furniture is great.
 

i found some dog fabric to compliment the cat fabric, and this time made cat beds with the dog fabric. 2 local cats and one interstate cat were the lucky recipients of these cat beds.


and just for something totally different i organised to get bees at our workshop. a friend of mine is bee keeping, and needs places to put his hives. so we give him space in our yard, he does all the work and then when it is time to extract the honey we get 1 jar of rental honey.
 

right now there is just the one level but soon we will get a second story and that is where our honey will be stored until we extract it at the end of summer.
 

you barely even notice it is there, and i like the idea of helping the bee population out.
