Therapy

Look at me ... blogging and everything ...

Have had these photos for about a week and thought that I might as well get on with this blogging stuff.

Gary finished the night stands for the guest room / Ryan's room. They are ADORABLE! He made up the design to match the dresser and they turned out rather nice:


There really is not enough room for two in that room, but it seemed like a smart idea to make two at the time - therefore Jessie's room gets a lovely night stand also:


So ... the room is almost complete:



Gary is still hating the desk ... or what he disgustedly calls 'The Organ' since he thinks it looks more like a musical instrument. He has a plan to put it out at the top of our staircase and make shelves for the room. Another wood project for him!

And the title? This is most assuredly Gary's therapy. He says it is cheaper than the real thing (but with the price of oak these days ... iffy). Today he mentioned that it keeps him from beating the dog and the children - so another plus!


And as a side note: He got a belated birthday gift from me (who knew the darn things would take 6 weeks to ship?). It is an electric 'brander' to burn into his wood projects. I think it is cool that he can put his name and the year he built something on his projects:

Now to convince him to go 'brand' everything in our house ...
