My son asked me the other day if I could learn anything, easily and immediately without any work on my part, what would it be?  The first thing that popped into my head was "welding".  I've always wanted to learn how to weld and make artsy-fartsy things such as this.  Someday maybe.  (what would you have said?)

Lovely retaining wall.  I really hate large expanses of plain ole concrete, this is a great way to add some interest and decorate it up.  So many possibilities to make it personal to you.

Adorable willow sculpture.  I have a couple books on this technique and would love to play with it.  I've planted an arbor out in my front yard but its taking forever to grow enough for me to start weaving.  Almost there.

This has been on my to-do list for a couple years now only I'm planning a house from plastic bottles.  I want a little playhouse in the woods around the lake for grandkids someday.  I've got bottles that people have been collecting for me spilling out of the shed, I just need to get 'er done (as if we don't have enough going on right now, it'll have to wait).
