The Most Beautiful Custom Made Project For ME!!!

About a week and a half ago - several people on LNS were talking about storage for their stamp pads, re-inkers and markers. There were some samples posted and links posted to where you could purchase some. I told my husband about them and he said he would make me one! *Bonus* I showed him some pictures and gave him a stamp pad, a re-inker and a marker and he went to town. Now I thought he was going to make something that everyone would want and would want to purchase from him. Everything he makes as a Master Craftsman Wood Worker is so amazing and I am not sure why I thought he would come up with something that the everyday SU person would want to or be able to purchase! No - NOT MY HUSBAND! Everything he makes has to be quality, almost perfect and a work of art! He came up with the most beautiful piece of furniture you can imagine! It is made out of cedar and probably weighs about 20 lbs. and he even left the "natural look" of the cedar on the bottom piece for me to enjoy. Take a look - isn't he amazing??? I am very lucky that he loves me so much!
Here are the pictures I took as I am very happy with my new treasure. See you soon!

    Renee: I had to come back for a second look. I love how he cut a place out where you load the stamp pads so their easy to get out. Then a place for the reinkers and the markers. This is really a fantastic design. Way to go Ron!

    Ron said since it took him 5 days to make it - he would be delighted to make one for anyone who wanted one, but it would be $350 and I just laughed right out loud! He gave me a very dirty look. I explained though - he is happy again! He is my sweetheart! Renee

    WOW! Such beautiful storage for your ink pads. We are lucky to have husbands that do such special stuff for us. My husband took 2 bedrooms and took the wall out to make me a fabulous craft room.

    I would sure love to have one, but I can't afford $350. Could he maybe use some less expensive wood? Thanks, Kristi
