Installed this Laundry Storage Cart last week and Installed this Laundry Storage Cart last week and we wasted no time in putting it to use! I hate clutter on top of the washer and dryer, and I knew something like this would make a huge difference in keeping things accessible but not cluttered. I talk often about my obsession with getting design perfect, but it isn’t always about appearance for me, but rather about function. I am a sucker for design details though! This wood matches the counters perfectly, which I still love! I love the small things that make a piece not only pretty, but useful! What do y’all think? Could y’all use more storage in your laundry room?? #oak #rubio #storage #design ⁣ #carpentry #womenwoodworkersofig #woodworkinglove #woodwork #woodworkingshop #renovation #woodworkingtools #woodworkersofinstagram #design #woodworkers #modernmakers #makersofinstagram #makerlife #cabinetry #customwoodwork #customcabinets #woodworking #home #woodworkingproject #woodworkingskills #interiordesign #customcabinetry #homedecor #customwoodworking #handtoolwoodworking #woodworkerofinsta
Y’all remember these Dog Gates I made for our st Y’all remember these Dog Gates I made for our stairs? Our sweet Jack passed away earlier this year, but these gates have been a god send with a rambunctious puppy that is closer in size to a horse than any dog I’ve seen. He recently found out how to circumvent these gates so I have another project on my hands! These are still gorgeous and have held up really well considering the abuse both the kids and the dogs have given them. Another personal favorite project of mine! What do y’all think?? #Repost @toolgirlsgarage ・・・ The Dog Gates are installed- one of the many projects I’m glad to be done with- minus one hinge that I need to replace 🤷🏼‍♀️! I’m really happy with how the whole thing came together and how well it goes with the flow of our staircase. Off to the next project! * * * Thanks Jack for joining in the photo! ❤️ Made from Stair Parts, Red Oak and used my @festool Domino from @ohiopowertool for Joinery! * * #festool #gates #doggates #install #redoak #makeover #stairs #staircase #diy #woodwork #woodworker #woodworkersofig #woodworkersofinstagram #maker #makersofig #makersofinstagram #makermom #home #renovate #labsofinstagram #dogmom #doghome #lab
Today is my other half’s birthday, and without g Today is my other half’s birthday, and without getting overly sappy, I think he’s pretty much the best. Y’all often joke that he doesn’t really exist, but he is always there, pushing me to keep sharing and creating! Your constant support and steadfast love is what makes you an amazing husband, father and best friend. We are about as different as two people can be- and as we have gotten older, those differences are what makes our life together so beautiful. You’re the calm, I’m the storm. You’re the messy, I’m the organized. You’re neurotic about maybe 3 things, while I’m neurotic about everything else. You go with the flow, and I go against the grain. You are most happy watching me sketch out the next dream I have for our home and are legitimately cool coming home to a wall missing or some new renovation happy because it makes me happy. Your love is always reflected in your words and actions- and I’m grateful to be celebrating birthday 18 with you- here’s to 36! Also- these Business Card Holders were a huge hit! Walnut Wood, engraved with my @glowforge and filled with @totalboat Epoxy. #woodwork #family #birthday #otherhalf #marriage #marriagegoals #makersofig #makersofinstagram #woodworker #woodworking #woodworkersofinstagram #woodworkersofig #womenwoodworkers #womenwoodworkersofig
This sweet sign was one of my recent projects for This sweet sign was one of my recent projects for our house that holds so much meaning for me! Swipe to see it all finished! The first time I saw @hamiltonmusical this quote stuck in my mind for days, and reminded me so much of the things I’ve always told my kids. If there is one thing I hope they take away from having me as a Mom, it’s the importance of owning your happiness and your actions, and to recognize the value of what makes people unique. After all, there is only one you! Have y’all ever made something that has a really special meaning? I spent a chunk of time creating the background, cut the quote from Walnut with my @glowforge and finished it off with a walnut frame. @generalfinishes Snow White paint on the backer. #hamilton #quote #woodworking #woodworker #makers #makermom #makersofinstagram #makersofig #autismmom #toolsofthetrade #woodworkersofig #woodworkersofinstagram #womenwoodworkers #womenwoodworkersofig #glowforge #glowforgemade #walnut #hardwood #design #farmhouse #farmhousedecor
Y’all. We’re nearing the finish line on this p Y’all. We’re nearing the finish line on this project. Today was a little tedious- had some fairly significant finishing issues, but as always we’re going to make it happen! Let’s end the week strong! 💪🏻 #finish #whiteoak ⁣ #woodworkingforall #wood #makersmovement #homedecor #easydiy #woodworking #diyhome #woodwork #woodworkersofinstagram #maker #homedesign #construction #makersgonnamake #woodworkingcommunity #woodworker #homeimprovement #carpentry #woodworkinglove #woodworkingtools #woodworkingskills #womenwoodworkersofig #woodworkersofig #woodworkingshop #diy
Spent most of the day- again- working on this proj Spent most of the day- again- working on this project. This laundry room storage is going to be awesome, but not going to lie, in the time I’ve spent on this one build I could have completed all the upper cabinets for the laundry room. Regardless- we’re nearing the finish line and sometimes you just gotta celebrate the victory, regardless of how long it took to get there. What’s happening in y’all’s shop or life this week? Pictures are of the progress- shelves still to be mounted, finish applied, casters- etc. @surfprepsanding Sander is great for details and tight corners. (Link in bio) @dfmtoolworks has awesome Card Scrapers! And the @dewalttough Cordless Router is certainly a work horse! Super powerful for a cordless unit! Always rocking the @freud_tools Router Bit! User my Chamfer today. @bad_northamerica shirt- best shop shirts!! ⁣ #makers #carpenter #diy #carpentry #handcrafted #custom #woodworkingforall #woodworkersofinstagram #woodworkingskills #rockler #woodworkingcommunity #woodworkinglove #makersofinstagram #woodworkingshop #woodworking #woodworkingtool #makersgonnamake #routertable #maker #woodworkingproject #woodwork #finewoodworking #style #wood #woodworkingtools #handmade #woodworkersofig #makersofig #woodcraft #woodworker
