Day 4: Sides

Today was a pretty successful day. I added 13 wine labels, including some wrapped around the sides. Wrapping around the sides is definitely the most difficult part of the project because it makes you strategically hold down all side while simultaneously wrapping around the edge. And because it's a wet glue, it takes some patience. But I got it done :)



I did the decoupaging (yes, decoupaging) while the delicious chicken below was cooking:



...of course when we cut into it, it was almost completely raw. I think there's something wrong with our oven considering the suggested cook time was an hour and after an hour and a half it was still raw inside. Oh well, we just stuck it in a big pot and braised it instead. Lost the crispy skin, but at least we didn't kill ourselves.

  1. That's hilarious about the chicken!! (But too bad about the oven!) That's the beauty of a rental, though! Somebody else gets to pick up the oven-tab! The project looks great!
