In Which We Learn About Sandpaper

9/16/2015

1 Comment

 
Hello again, and welcome back to our blog! Since we spent much of last week focusing on things that are, shall we say, less than thrilling,* we decided to "kick things into high gear" and focus on some of the more "sexy" details of our "ongoing renovations." That's right: furniture restoration. 

If you've been to pretty much any bar that's opened within the past five years or so, you may have noticed a trend toward a style that I'll call "industrial chic," which is largely achieved by spending thousands of dollars to manufacture furniture that looks like it was made out of old garbage (I believe the industry term is "repurposing"). Well, we don't have that kind of cash, so we're cutting out the middle man and going with a style that Jared calls "thrift store couture" (a phrasing he uses in the vain hope that nobody will realize he doesn't know what those words mean). Rather than making our tables out of old anvils or something,** much of our furniture is "repurposed" from furniture that used to be much crappier. And amidst all the sanding and spraying and swearing, we learned an important lesson: there is an excellent reason why sane people pay good money to not have to do this. We're still far from done, but we've at least gotten some of it to look like it isn't garbage (progress!), so check it out!
Picture

Behind the camera: shiny optimism.
Behind the camera: beer deprivation.
In the meantime, we've also been putting in some time working on our tap handles (remember those?) which have been repurposed from, um, trees (OK fine, I'll stop now). Those ain't done yet either, but we did some science to a bunch of wood and managed to not get any serious burns on any major body parts, so keep an eye out for some eye-catching tap handle goodness in the near future!
Picture

Pictured: Science!
Pictured: Wood!
In other news - more specifically, news that we forgot to mention last week (an omission that is made all the more glaring when you consider the amount of detail we put into such less-pressing topics as What Jared Thinks About Dust) - our new friends over at MetroRock put up a poster for us! That's damned neighborly if I do say so myself. So if you're in the Everett area (especially "The Village," which is apparently what our neighborhood is called?) and you get a hankerin' to do some climbing (or I guess if you just want to look at that sweet poster that Jimbo done up), you should check them out!
Picture
The poster will probably look familiar since you're looking at a picture of it right now.

*For those of you just itching for news about trash piles and roof repairs and dusting, it should suffice to say that the saga is not over - the roof now leaks in an entirely new location (right over where we were storing all our brewing equipment, as a matter of fact). Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to resume sitting in the corner and sobbing quietly.
**All kidding aside, we do genuinely like the "industrial chic" look. But we can't afford it anyway, so that's really neither here nor there (sour grapes, anyone?).

MetroRock also has your stickers! I know I'm excited to dabble between you and Night Shift for post climbing beers. Right now I'm too regular at Night Shift that we need another good brewery in the area. :)
