Bathroom Vanity & other projects

Wendy has been busy painting...but not the "fun" creative kind. Jerry (Dad) built this awesome armoire (doors not shown).


Scott has been hard at work building a pine rustic bathroom vanity. Even built his own raised panel doors.

Finished piece. Scott also made the mirror and the towel rack. 
I wood burnt some pinecone branches on it.
