Adam's Winter Projects Part 2



This is a french side table. The cabriole legs were a new challenge for Adam and they turned out perfect.

Once again, the hardware can really change how a piece looks, and we both loved this lion head. It reminds us of door knockers in London and lion head soup bowls filled with French Onion soup.


Notice the decorative boarder along the drawer.
This is also made from mahogany and plans are found on the New Yankee website.

Adam's Winter Projects Part 1


My husband Adam was busy in the garage for most of the holiday season making many things that beautified our home.



I love relaxing in a bath with a good book and so he made me this. It is quarter-sawn oak, with a danish oil and a few coats of oil urethane.



I love this dresser he made for our bedroom. It is a 7-drawer chest made of mahogany. Plans for this chest can be found on the New Yankee Workshop



I especially love the brass hardware. They really set it off nicely.



My art teacher painted this beautiful oil painting of the two of us, but Adam made the frame. Again, quarter-sawn oak, danish oil, but finished with a lacquer.
