Adding the final touch
 HOI SAI AND FURNITURE......


One of the projects at Warm Heart, the Organization that my family is volinteering at, is developing a Comunity Center at a place called Hoi Sai. 

To make this happen they have to build furniture and gardening to plant things like hibiscus,  roses and aloe vera . In this post I will tell you about furniture that has been created and the progression of the project.

Some of the things that they are making are awesome unique tables, a strong bookself, and some short short chairs. The materials they are  using to make these thing are only bamboo, wood (from pallets) and nails to hold all of the things together. The tools you would need to build the furniture, include a sharp dangerours used-to-be-shiney saw, a long dirty yellow measuring tape with a gray cover, a black handled hammer with a bright yellow body and a rusty gray top, and a LOUD noisy dangerous power drill. Some of the happy workers at Warm Heart that have developed the strong pettie furniture include Lurking Laurie, Tall Tim, and Greg the Great.


The furniture that has been made by Tim, Laurie and my Dad is very very unique. But before they are displayed they must make them be pretty by sanding and  oiling them.  Even though they are  very noisy to make, they will be quite when they are put to use.
