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!!!

My Messy Closet Under the Stairs....

Is now an organized mess, thanks to my mans crafty hands. He often watched me struggle loading and unloading the closet, trying to locate just the right paper, ribbon, rubber stamps, etc. 

Then one day a couple weeks ago he said what if we get more plastic containers for all that paper and make another sturdy paper holder.  It's similar to the 1st one he made me, but without the fancy finish (you can see the 1st on here http://mymanscraftyhands.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-custom-deluxe-12x12-paper-storage_18.html.

So here's some before and after pic's of the "messy closet under the stairs" and my new paper shelf w/ two little handy drawers at the top....  

This is the closet before, with most of the paper is already out.

Here's some of the homeless paper, we're trying to organize.

Here's the awesome shelf my husband made to hold all my paper :):):)

  

Here's everything back in.
He even extended the closets existing shelf & added an additional florescent light to the shelf.

Now all the paper containers are labeled and much, much easier to get to.

This is my boy Randall, he's trying to figure out how he can use our new and improved closet ;)

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend!

Wow... DH Is On A Roll!

Here's my mans latest creation, it's a beautiful cat intarsia, made especial for me :):):)  It turned out so awesome, he used 5 different types of wood to create this beauty.  I've named him "Starling"!
  

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!

Hugs,
