More highlights from a summer of making!

This is a peacock made from a repurposed wooden rocking chair.

 This is a vintage wooden box that Richard burned, carved and painted with the image of an oak-lined dirt road.

 Continuing in the peacock theme, this box is painted with a peacock feather design.

 This is one of several benches that we have been painting. Richard burned in the decorative grape vine motif, then painted it.

 This is another vintage wooden box with a sliding lid. It has a very Asian feel to it with the stylized old tree and the sunset images.

 This is the first bench we painted. It was inspired by quilts and stained glass.

 This is a small "picket bench" made from a section of old fence.

This is the newest piece- a decorative table that is topped with a collage of wooden pieces. To give it a little more functionality and a smoother surface in the middle, a round glass piece was added (it is removable).
