More Barn Wood Crafts!

Been a while since I've showed off some of my new stuff, so here goes!!!

I make these simple country rustic picture frames is all sizes, from a 4" x 5" to a 16" x 20".


These are a couple of new shelves I made.  Even something this small is a challenge to get half way level.  The picture is crooked, so it's actually a cute little shelf.

The simpler, the better, I say!


I'm all of five foot tall and maybe 115 lbs.  It's hard for people to imagine me with a circular saw, goggles, ear plugs, and saw dust all over, but here's the proof that I actually do look like a really small "Tool Time" guy sometimes!

I don't make anything much bigger than this little side table because I don't have the skills to make this old warped wood come out level!

My oldest son graduated from High School last Friday Night!!!  Don't know whether to laugh or cry.  He's got Asperger's Syndrome and graduated just one year behind!!!  It's been a long hard road, but I'm proud of him!!!!  You Did It!!!




Yes, he's over a foot taller than I am.

My second oldest boy, just got his driver's permit and the third oldest boy is just a few weeks from getting his.  By the way, if you haven't read my profile, my husband and I have 5 wonderful adopted children.
