Cutest little Hoot & Nanny...


My DH made this one for my mom.  He surprised her with it at Christmas. She has a small farm, she loves critters and has owed goats in the past, needless to say she loved her intarsia.  She has a pretty good son-in-law if you ask me ;)

Lovely Palm Tree Intarsia...

As you all may know, I have a hard time keeping up with my own blog and then I try to blog my husbands woodworking as well. He's just so good at it and I want the world to see his wonderful handcrafted items. I love his work :):):)

So here's a special request from his mom, she wanted some palm trees.



So what do you think? Pretty cool huh?  I got the pleasure of helping with this one since it required a bit of paint :)

His mother loved it!!!

So here it is...

My DH's second intarsia all finished... It's a little Santa bear.  I'm so proud of my husband and how nice he finished this project.  If you recall, me mentioning before he was never much into finish work and with intarsia, it's pretty much all about the finish work (the sanding & staining). 
Hope you like it!

DIY Scroll Saw Stand...

Here's a great little project my husband came up with for his scroll saw.  He's wanted a stand for it for a while now, but didn't want to pay $100.00 for one. So, he pulled together some of his scrap wood & here's what he came up with.

My husbands newest woodworking project is a whale he made using a technique called intarsia 
(meaning: intarsia  a form or method of decoration, dating from the Renaissance, consisting of inlaid, mosaiclike patterns, especially of wood.) 

Since he's never made one before... He found a simple & free beginners pattern at Intarsia.com, to start out with and he made this bad boy in less than a days time.  I'm so proud of him, it turned out awesome, don't ya think?

The Great Wine Rack....


A friend of my husbands had seen the paper storage cabinet while it was in progress.  He instantly associated it with a wine rack and asked my husband if he could construct the wine rack that he had invisioned.... My DH is always up for a challenge and agreed as long as he didn't have to stain it... lol!  Told you he's not known for his finish work :):):)
The wine rack holds 90 bottles of wine and my husbands friend was thrilled with it.

Here it is... Made to order.
 
Here's a picture my DH's friend sent of it in it's new home (all full of wine).

Here it is and it turned out AWESOME!
I LOVE My Custom DELUXE 12x12 Paper Storage and all the extra drawers!!!!
Thank you babe, ♥ you ~ xoxoxo

Please Note:  Nothing is as orange as it appears in the pic's.   It was the wrong time of the day for pictures, hence the poor lighting.  It's truly a very beautiful color, in person.
