Thought I had been slacking off huh! Revised!


For those of you who have been keeping up with my Flickr, you know I haven't been slacking off. That's right! Ever so slowly, I am working on my Buffet. What can I say? It's fairly hard to work on it without having my own shop and all the correct tools. None the less I continue to work on it little by little. I think I prefer it that way for right now. I have a lot of other things going on as well at the moment, and my buffet/dresser...uh...dresser/buffet???? keeps me from getting burnt out on any one thing.

Oh yeah... these photos are of one of the sliding doors that will cover the drawers... um... shelves? I'm not quite sure which of those 2 the doors will cover right now. Designs evolve over time. Be assured though, they will indeed cover something as door are wont to do. Also, don't be amazed when you see a different version of this door. One that has a background of white with the images in the stained wood. I still haven't figured out how I am going to connect the overlay/3d element to the door. I have options. Therefore I can show you another image of what could have been, but will never be.

For those of you who have been following my blogs...here is the variation of my door. This is the way the door would look if it were white with the image dimension image on top of it. This is the way the door would look because, well... this is the door painted white. I chose to use the other side that is stained due to issues with the paint not laying well.

If you can do the white thing - that would look amazing!

Lolly-Jolly, I'm glad that you like the image. As far as the snowboarding goes... don't feel too bad. You have plenty of time to learn it.

Hey JEM! Sorry I've been away for so long, but as you can see, I'm starting back at the post where I left off so I can catch up!

I think this is an amazing piece - this door - just on its own. I can see it as a wall hanging so easily; it would be quite impressive. As it is, you are going to have the coolest dresset...or is it buffer?;)
