The lack of heat is fine with me as we don't have air conditioning, so when it's hot about the only thing I do is read. <br />The finish looks great, but I sympathize about working with all those triangles. <br />PatMissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-80103423604585597622017-07-21T19:24:26.282-04:002017-07-21T19:24:26.282-04:00I love how this turned out, Mari!
