Two New Demos for Dad's Website

I don't know if the people who bookmark Dad's website pay this much attention but we always do new demos at Thanksgiving. And this Thanksgiving was no exception. I did a little card weaving for the first time EVER...and we filmed it. Heh...weaving it isn't the trick though. Stringing it is. But the fun for the demos is the weaving--seeing the tool in action, you understand. We also went to an assisted living center to listen to Dad's neighbor, Jack the engineer, play in a Bluegrass band. I striped off the music for the card demo. So it's our first demo with music:



For the second one, Mandy and Beth need a bunch of straps for some bags they are making done. Dad and I brought another Nakadai to her place and I started a pattern Mandy has never done before on it. I made the demo super quick like, so that she could finish the project on her own.

It's another silent one and the pattern is pretty easy but turns out rather cool and strappy:

Etsy

Well, I'm an internet seller consultant here in Pomeroy, WA. I just helped Anna, one of Dad's Neighbors, make an Esty Shop. See:



I made the banner for her (above), and walked her through posting items. The first two mini-boxes we did together.

If you feel so inclined, send Anna some feedback, okay?
