Do we need a camper for the safe tubes. I've been playing again. lol This is my camper and I tubed a pic I had taken last fall in the mtns. Funny thing is, because it was parked in the shade it looks like it has blue trim, when in fact the trim color on the canvas is Hunter Green. lol

Also here is a lamp I made with one of my antique spools from an old garment factory.

Thanks Jillian. I AM having fun tubing. I have a pad on order as Wal_Mart didn't have any, I don't do a lot at one time because my fingers get stiff and sore from the RA, but it is relaxing to me also, so I just prop my feet up on a wooden box and pillow under my desk and away I go. lol
The lamp looks like the spool lines are wobbly, but that spool is so worn that is how it looks in person too, so I really didn't want to straighten it. A lot of thread has passed over that wood. lol

These are great Anita. I have a small antique spool. How good to have it functional as a light.

Great tubes Anita. I used to camp like that with a friend and his parents. It was such fun to go to the lake and camp for the weekend. Thanks for the memories. And I love that lamp.
