During the pandemic, many people took up baking. I did something a little different. I designed furniture. Thankfully, I know a master woodworker who made my chicken-scribble designs into reality.
It all started pre-pandemic when I needed a dresser. I did a lot of searching but couldn't find anything I liked. I put a few ideas together, and one thing led to another, and I ended up designing a custom six-drawer dresser.
During the pandemic, I realized the dressing table (not mine) in my room was falling apart. I didn't see myself with the need to sit in front of a dressing table and check my makeup, I decided to replace it with a couple of nightstands instead.
One was this one-door/three-drawer nightstand.
The other is this one-drawer nightstand.
I designed one of the nightstands larger than the other since it would be doing most of the heavy lifting for storage.
I also designed a 30"x40" wall mirror (shadow-box frame) made in this beautiful solid Burmese teak. For when I have spinach stuck between teeth. I may have embraced leisurewear but haven't completely given up (yet).
