Beginning and End

I don't know what I like doing more, finishing a project or having a new one to start. They both have their ups and downs, but it's a good feeling either way. I'll admit that starting a project can be infinitely more frustrating than finishing. The fact that I've got to find out how to get whatever someone wants into a block of wood lying on my table. On top of that I've got to make it look different than anything I've done, or give it some extra zest.

But nothing is better than being done, because (most of the time) I know I did it right and there aren't any more chances for me to make a mistake. During the whole process I have this image in my mind about what I want it to look like when I'm done. Sometimes it turns out just like I thought, other times not so much. No matter how it ends up looking, I've always been happy with the final result. At this point, the only thing I have to worry about is if others fall in love with it as much as I have.
