I thought you would like to see some of the small miscellaneous projects I’ve worked on in recent months that were interesting but perhaps not big jobs that merit a whole post.
The first photo is a customized beverage/organizer for the console of a conversion van. The second photo is a trophy/award cabinet made from parts of an old entertainment center. The third photo is the family crest of our neighbor. I researched her name, enlarged the design to make a pattern, then cut it out and painted it with acrylic paints. The fourth photo is a cabinet that can be used for a variety of things..it is in the American Primitive style with a solid surface top. It is perfect for any style of sink, but I think a top mount china bowl would look really nice. The fifth photo is of a custom laundry cabinet that had to fit an odd size area alongside the washer and dryer. It will get a granite top. The sixth photo is a vanity I did for a close friend who often has small children visiting. The bottom center drawer pulls out and becomes a step stool so the little ones can reach the sink. When it’s no longer needed as a stool, it is easily converted to regular drawer. As you can see, I get asked to do a variety of different projects and am always looking for ways to build nice pieces from things that may usually be discarded. I am also getting more and more requests for repair/refinishing of damaged antique furniture and am having a great time with this new venue. Look for a future post on some of those type of projects.
