My big tub of spackle is turning into fluff. The newer, smaller tub has a pool of viscous liquid floating on top, so I poured some of it off into the fluff and it sort of reconstituted and I began frosting the fridge's outsides. I attached the frame half of the hinge to the wrong side of the frame and protected the door half with masking tape and spread the frame's outside with spackle, and I spackled the door. When it was all dry I began sanding it smooth and big chunks of fluffy spackle fell off the fridge carcase and door. I kept the *magic* words to a minimum and opened the new tub and used my fingers to spread fresh spackle in the holes.

After it dried the sanding went a bit better, I shall rub it all down with a wet finger in a bit and let it dry until we get home Sunday.

Whilst all this went on I found my table pieces and punched them out and sanded them

and stained them maple.

When they were dry I glued them together. They look very nice and not like diecut.

I punched out the armchairs but decided not to work on them or the couch until last. Looking at the shield-back chairs I shall have to make fabric seat & back pads to dress them up; they can also wait.
