This coffee table is beautiful. What a transformation for an old crate. I used to love working with wood. When Bella (the dog Jack and I adopted from the humane society) chomped on an antique chair, I used wood putty to fill in the huge gap. I sanded it so that it had the same curve it used to have. Then it was a series of wood stains so that it finally blended with the rest of the chair. When I went to sell it as part of a set, the buyer was surprised to learn it had been damaged and repaired. That was so satisfying! Hi Regina-

Love the design. I have so much fun making things like that. Something old, reborn. You did a great job with the mitered moulding...You will treasure that forever. I love the Valentines. Really, really love them. That is what a valentine should be all about, not these mass produced, disney character things that have no real substance. On the flip side though, there is 20 kids in just one of my kids classes. I'd need to have her start making them now for next years bunch! I am going to check out that site, cause I'd love to participate in a postcard swap! Especially if I got one from you. That is awesome. Love the design. I have so much fun making things like that.
