This project called for an enclosed dog run and a sizeable custom doghouse for two adorable Labrador Retrievers. The dogs’ kennel and yard are enclosed with the attractive Kentucky Board Fence and includes two matching gates at opposite ends. The custom doghouse is insulated and incorporates a shaded porch large enough for both dogs.

A couple of new pieces from Gathering Wood had to be put on hold as we moved our family and woodshop from California to Kentucky. One particular piece, There’s No Place Like Home, will soon be released in your choice of a routed edge profile or as a framed Wall Art.

Our client spent a considerable amount of time completing this piece of needlework. She requested that we incorporate the finished piece into a practicable Serving Tray and have the needlework protected under glass.

This project was completely custom. The Serving Tray frame profile was milled to allow for 1/4″ glass, the professionally mounted needlepoint, and a Cherry back-piece ~ all retained by a removable stop. The removable stop will allow for access, if necessary, in the future.
