My Husband the Carpenter

Some of you may not know this, but Justin is quite good at wood working. He has been making things around the house for a long time, but some of his best work has been in the kids room. He began when Alina was born and recently has made more things to go in the room. He picked up a lot of his skills working in a "second-hand" store where he fixed all sorts of messed up furniture and also from his dad who is a very handy man as well. Here are some of his projects, sorry for some reason the pictures are blurry.


This is his most recent project, making the hutch for the dresser we bought for the room and staining it all to match the other furniture in there.
This is the toy box he made for Alina before she was born. He also made one for our niece, Lily, but its white.
This is the changing "table" he made. We didn't have room for an actual one or a dresser type so he made one that fits on the end of the twin bed in the room. Its perfect!
He also made the shelf (but not the anchor things)
He made several other book shelves, but you get the idea. He loves this kind of thing! I hope one day we can have a garage or shed of some sort so he can do more:)
