Project Information

Here it is, another Valentines Day, the only difference this year is I'm not scavenging the shelves in search of flowers and chocolates. Instead, I gave myself a weeks notice to build something. What am I gonna build, I didn't think that thru very well, so I dug out some antique hooks from the hardware bucket, a mirror from the storage closet and some wood from the scrap bin and voila'... a framed picture of my lovely wife… or the dog, whichever steps in front…..

Marty, nice work. Making an arch at the top can be a chore. That must be some hardware bucket if you pulled that set of hangers out of it. They look great. I take it that the scraps were white oak. Nice to see you planned ahead for Valentine's Day. Good to see your poste projects.
