I made this jewelry box that was commissioned as a gift for a 20th wedding anniversary - Matt & Elena Steigerwald. It is made of Walnut with Mahogany drawers and handmade wooden glides. The bottom of the drawers is coated with a wine-colored crushed velvet flocking.

The Crib is Completed!!

Yay!! The Crib is done!!It has been a long process, but well worth it. The piece is made of solid walnut legs, hard maple for all of the body of the crib, and slats are done with mahogany inlay.

Below are the rest of the process photos for finishing the crib. Keep in touch for next week when I will post studio photos of the finished work, and photos of the piece in it's home.

Floating Cherry Wall Shelf


Here is a quick little project I did for a client. A small wall box shelf made of cherry wood, with mitered corners reinforced with wooden splines. It hangs on a french cleat, for a clean look with no hardware showing.
