Teenage Grandaughter's Dream & Will You Build it "Grandpaw"
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)
 My granddaughter Jaylen wanted a framed mirror with shelves on each side to dance in front of, sit and put makeup on, and store girl stuff. This is what I came up with: sides are made out of 3/4” furniture grade plywood, Poplar shelves mounted in dato's, 3/4” MDF mirror frame, trimmed in Poplar, put together with pocket hole screws and painted white. It's a little over around 5' tall. Mounted to the wall in 3 sections and then trimmed out as 1 unit.She had a sleep over Friday night and my daughter would occasionally go in and check on them and found all 5 in one form or another looking, dancing, talking, brushing, smiling, laughing, giggling in the mirror all night. Thats teenagers for you, as for me, I still don't know who that old bald guy is who keeps looking back in the mirror. You and I both know this project isn't a masterpiece, but my Granddaughter thinks it is, and that's what makes the old man happy.Thanks for looking, Joe

Honey Do's

 No marquetry here. These are a couple of Q&D pergolas that I built for my beloved's yard makeover project. The pergolas themselves are just pressure treated material but the gates are really nice yellow cedar. My shop still smells great.
The sign is an old one that I carved for our previous gate years ago with new paint and gold leaf (artificial).Thanks for looking.Paul
