Well it's Friday, yay! I have a long weekend ahead of me and I'll be busy making buttons, magnets,gift tags as well as some new items for my Etsy shop. I've gotten some very nice pieces of Tamarack wood from my son. Tamarack wood is actually a deciduous tree (i.e. maple, oak, hickory) that looks like a conifer (i.e. pine, spruce, fir).
