Frame for bulletin board

So, my wife tacked up a 3 part bulletin board. Of course it was glued to the wallpaper. So, I could complain, or I could frame it. So I ripped an old 2×4, cut some lap joints, sanded it flush, stained, varnished, and tacked it up. Now it looks like it belongs.

Leaning kitchen Spice Rack/shelf

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Born of necessity. All the lowers in this kitchen are deep, dark cupboards. Since I don't own the house I needed a better place to access spices more easily that did not attach to the wall. Hence a leaning tower shelf.Made of Mahogany. All the timber was dimensioned by hand (see blog posts on woodworking in Nairobi on why).It needed to be dyed (using aniline dyes from Lee Valley) to get closer to the kitchen colour. Finished with polyurethane.
