    Mission style book case

    This will be the first of the Christmas presents for this year. Made it for my oldest daughter as she wanted some place to store her Mary Kay product (she's a Mary Kay rep, she doesn't really wear so much makeup she needs a place to store it ). She has mission style furniture and she wanted doors with glass. Made from QS white oak, finish is a water based stain and 4 coats of clear shellac.
    Thanks for looking,
    DonHo

              That turned out quite nice Don. I'll bet she enjoys it a lot, especially since you made it for her.

                    Nice job!

                    Are those crimson window shades I see there?

                      Actually more of an Aggie maroon (not actually "aggie" maroon but Ada Hight school maroon. The aggies stole their colors and fight song from my high school and this year they are playing kinda like my high school ). Anyway I didn't expect that a UT fan would know about Ada maroon but knew you'd know about aggie maroon.

                          Fixt it for you!

                          Remember at one time I wasn't too far up the road from you in Collinsville, I know what Ada maroon is. What do you expect from the Aggies anway?

                            Very nice piece.

                            Did you follow plans from somewhere ?
