Jelery box

I had fun flexing my creative muscles making this jewelery box for my wife.  This one has a hidden compartment in the bottom of the box and is finished only with semi-gloss polyurethane to allow the woods natural color and beauty to shine through.

Cubs win, Cubs win!

I built these for a very good friend of mine, these boards feature the largest decals that I have ever used at 20" diameters which make sure that no questions your fanhood!

My personal favorite

Ok, so after making lots of sets for other people I finally made my very own set.  This was the first one I did with a three colored theme, and the painting process was very time consuming due to the complexity of this paint job.  This one of a kind set has the medium sized 16" decals in order to not take away from the lines of the actual paint job.

A quilt of sorts

I built this coffee table to make some money, but couldn't sell because I couldn't get what I wanted for it.  This table took HOURS AND HOURS to build, and in the end, I decided to give it to my sister and keep this piece in the family instead of getting less than what I felt this piece was worth.  My sister knows she's not allowed to get rid of it EVER!  This coffee table has lots of various hardwood scraps that I got from a cabinet shop.  Each piece was joined using a biscuit joiner to create this mosaic of scrap wood.  The table was finished using only semi-gloss polyurethane in order to protect it but allow each wood pieces natural beauty to shine.

This coat rack was built at about the same time as the coffee table. It was a beautiful and functional piece that served my wife and I in our very limited living space.

Picture frames

This one was built because I wanted to feature this old pirate looking map of Puerto Rico, the place where my wife and I fell in love doing a missions trip!

This frame was built as a Christmas present for my wife's cousin, and it combines various hard woods that I laminated together for a very unique look.  The frame was finished with a semi-gloss polyurethane to showcase each individual woods natural beauty.

Not so much a picture frame as a candle/nick nack frame that I built as a gift for my mom.  This features several different hardwoods that I laminated together and then finished with a semi-gloss polyurethane.

Happy wife happy life!

This shadow box was built for my wife's nick nacks and decorative accents.  I made them to mount onto the wall and keep Mommy's pretty things out of reach from little hands!

Here's another pretty nick nack holder, each frame is mounted on the wall separately to give it that seamless appearance 

Function and style

I built this to keep all our shoes organized and out of the way.  It serves a very functional purpose but doesn't look to bad either if I do say so my self!
