Hope Chest Done!



After years of procrastination it is finally done. Prompted by Laura's birthday (tomorrow), I have managed to save my marriage and provide a reasonably decent birthday suprise.

It looks really nice Keith. How did you teach Luke to do such good work?

Keith,
It is beautiful!!! My husband owes a hope chest with a crown on the top to dear friends of ours. We don't feel any rush since this child is still 11 years old. I love the design of the hope chest you chose. It will make a wonderful piece of furniture for your daughter for years to come!
grace and peace,
julie

What a beautiful hope chest, Mr. Bradshaw! Laura must be very pleased with her birthday present. You do fine work!

Thank you all for the kind remarks.

Waves, we usually tell him to stop smiling goofy and then take the picture.:) He does kind of have that proud, "see what I've done" look about him. He was in the basement nailing a bunch of boards together while I was working, if that counts.

Very nice Keith!

Raised panels even. What kind of wood did you use?

I'm inspired.

Thanks Herrick,
The camera kinda yellow'd up everything. It's walnut. Laura liked the contrast of heart and sap wood, so I put that on the front panels.
