Outdoor Bar Art

This piece of art was designed for an outdoor bar. It was made with barn wood, plywood and scrap pieces that were found or given to me. The bottom piece will be used as a shelf and is not attached. It is very heavy and will need brackets underneath for support. I really enjoyed making this and can hardly wait to see it installed!

This birdhouse was made to look like the customer's real house. It was made to fit over a 4X4 post and has few extras ; the fishing pole on the side and, at the request of a very sweet 4 year old girl, "Pink on the inside, please".

This box was made to hold my daughter's CDs. It was made of untreated cedar, carved and painted on the front.

Frame for Mom

I bought an unfinished frame at Michael's. I drew on the design, then used my wood burning tool and Dremel to carve on the lines. I used acrylics to paint it. I think by placing a piece of wrapping paper inside the frame before the photo is inserted makes it look better when you're giving it as a gift. This one is for my Mom. What a wonderful time we had in Colorado with our family this year!
Thanks, Mom
