Some projects that hubby's students built!

Hey everyone!

I thought you might like to see a few of the projects my hubbies students have recently completed.

Dan teaches woodworking I and II plus Building Construction and Entrepreneurship.

I am very impressed by this beautiful table!  This young man is a junior and this is his Woods II project.

The students also design their own projects.  They rough sketch, then a final sketch....my hubby proofs of course and helps them with any mistakes.   Then they create a working drawing to scale, plus a steps to procedure and finally a bill of materials that they will need.

This beautiful table cost $230.00 to make and it was built using Red Oak.

This young man is also a junior and he also created this beautiful hutch in Woodworking II.  His Mom was so thrilled with it that she sent my hubby the nicest thank-you note

The total cost of the hutch was $280.00 and it is made out of Cherry.

Anyhoo, I am very proud of my talented hubby!

He is the most amazing teacher and he is also incredibly patient!

And we are finally getting spring here in Wisconsin.

Boy it's been a long time coming.

The snow has finally melted and we are supposed to hit 70 degrees today and 81 tomorrow with a chance of nasty storms.

Next week we are back in the 50's and 60's. however I am not complaining as that is about where we should be for this time of year.

Take Care and have a wonderful weekend too!

I am linking this to Favorite Things Saturday @ Bargain Hunting and Chatting with Laurie.

Check out her amazingly fun blog, she is such a hoot!

Favorite Cupboard Party with Sheila!

I am joining the lovely Sheila (Note Songs) for her Heart of the Home/ Favorite Cupboard party.

Be sure the check out her lovely blog and the other participants that are joining her today.

My favorite cupboard is actually an armoire.  And it's a very special armoire because it was designed and built by my talented hubby! If you would like to read more about that you can by clicking here.
At over 7 ft. tall it's a towering piece for this little nook right off of our kitchen.  Dan added lot's of shelves for my overflow dishes, decor and other miscellaneous items. I wanted a cottage look and the appearance of wainscoting and hubby delivered!

A little closer look at the finish he used for the front. 

My other favorite cupboard is this old pie hutch.  I think I bought it like 30 years ago and only paid maybe $100 for it.  It's not perfect but it's charming and I have certainly gotten my money's worth.

If you look closely, you can see the litle holes on the side's of the hutch that were used way back in the olden days for cooling pies. 

It serves to hold my china and glassware.  Every now and then I pull everything out and re-arrange. 

I am way over-due for re-arranging but I think I have a very good little 17 lb. reason.

Little Addison turned 6 months old yesterday and I have been very busy helping her Mommy.

I am now a full time babysitting Grandma!

I might not have as clean of a home as before BA (before Addison) but I certainly have more joy!

Thanks for coming by and thanks to our lovely hostess Sheila!

Have a great week everyone and I just have to let you know that I am so envious of all you who have full blown spring.  I am wondering if our's will ever arrive!
