Elf’s are busy this time of year, and never more so than Saturday morning before their babies wake.
We need a lamp on this scene.
Lamps! These are from Wyrd. I’m cutting one down to hang from a sconce rather than placing the whole post on the street.
Best way to nice flat ends on little tiny bits that I’ve found is to sand it. Here’s the sander I love. This one’s a medium grit, but I have a fine on order.
Doohickey to hold the lamp and a good stout metal pin to keep it in place. Gotta build them as sturdy as you can or there’s you’re setting yourself up for major disappointment later.
This has to be wood-glued into place. You can build up enough of a shell on the outside, but the pin will be in direct contact with the foam. If super glue touches the foam it will eat it, so you must use wood glue. Try to get a good amount of thick glue into the hole, but keep it tidy & tight.
We’ll see how many posts I can put up today!
