A collection of home furnishings, accessories, oddities and cool stuff.

Self-contained chess sets to store pieces and board. Walnut and bird’s eye maple. Collapsible boards that come together with magnetic buttons stored in a solid wood slip case for the library shelf.

Boxes are fun to create. They are synonymous with keepsakes, treasures, personal secrets, etc. I design custom boxes for a wide variety of uses such as memory boxes for new parents to store significant memories of their newborn, to hold secific items or as a special way to present a gift or store valued souvenirs. Boxes are always well received and appreciated.

I love making frames. Maybe its because I love collecting artwork. When my wife and I travel we normally purchase some artwork as a souvenir which over the years has amounted to a significant collection. This is only a portion of what we have hanging on our walls. I’ve made hundreds of frames and use a 5-step process that works well for me.

The traditional cutting board is one of the oldest tools in the kitchen. They are quick fun projects that offer a variety of design options. Here is a selection of cutting, baguette and cheese boards.

Recently, charcuterie boards have become a popular item. In the shop, whenever I happen across a piece of lumber that was destined for firewood, I transform it into a free giveaway.
