Spring projects

Its hard to believe Spring begins this weekend! That means two things: Mothers Day is sooner than you think, and you might want to emerge from indoors and build an outdoor project.

For Mothers Day, you simply cant go wrong with jewelry boxes, but you might want to get started soon. Rick Beale made three, using curly redwood that was headed to the dump. Its astonishing what one mans scrap can yield to a woodworker. Nice work Rick. Check out the grain here:


And heres a great springtime project Laney sent over. You could certainly build this in a day or so. He used pressure treated lumber and some scrap cedar. The hanging baskets are my favorite.
