EmiliasNana, that is some great looking custom work that your DH & son have done. They certainly are very talented.

Wonderful! So much love in it too! Love when DH's support their wives in their creative pursuits! My DH is working on a recessed table for me. It will be out of melamine and fit my machine just right.

He did a fantastic job, and better than anything you could purchase as it is custom built for your specific needs. You are one lucky lady.

Talented Hubbies.....Lucky Ladies !!!!
While my DH never ever says a negative word about my hobbies or my quilting....and the dust and dishes and laundry could pile up and he'd never say a word.... i just HAVE to share an old story about his approach to any kind of handy-work around the house...
First, background wise - my DH has been in the wood business all his life - starting with his dad's lumber yard and small sawmill.
Many years ago i wanted a ceiling fan in our bedroom - i bought the ceiling fan and showed it to DH and said, we can mount this ourselves. He said no we couldn't....i insisted we could.
He then told me to look up electricians in the yellow pages. I said we didn't need one, we could do it ourselves, but he insisted. So i got out the phone book and turned to the Electricians page....DH said..."Any of those electricians selling lumber?"....of course not, say I......."well, when electricians start selling lumber, I'll start doing electrical work".
Nuff said.

The finished table is fabulous! what a family keepsake! Wow, wouldn't even know where to begin making a spinning wheel, that's gorgeous and the horse barn is amazing!! Lots of talented family members-love seeing all the creativity out there!! Support and encouragement comes in many forms-even if it's admiring what we create, and not asking why we need_______!

My SO and I built this barn and my sewing area in it two years ago. He is very talented when it comes to building and yes we women are blessed to have such me. Here is some pictures of my barn and room him and I built together.
