shelf love


last week i was looking around for some wood for another project when the pieces for this shelf appeared like a puzzle that was already put together!


i just love that little bit there where the old hinge used to be.


and of course, you can't make just one of something. i am a collector of things (who would have thunk it right?) and this shelf would be a great display for little treasures....hmmm....

that red board has been kicking around the shop for a bit now and those pieces of reclaimed chestnut even longer. sometimes you may not know why you are saving something, and when you use it, it is so gratifying!

boy do I agree about the vindication that comes from using something that has been kicking around for a while... Oliver and I have been working on our book art for the show, and we are both so excited! It is a perfect opportunity for us to do something together and is keeping us really motivated. Will send along images soon!
