Wood-burned Spoons

I wood-burned all my wooden spoons, as well as my rolling pin. I burned my last name initial as you can see :)

I know there's no need to really "label" anything since I know it belongs to me lol , but it was fun doing this!

materials:
wood burner, wood burn stamps (letters), wooden spoons

MP3 Stereo Shelf

I wanted to make this really, really bad, but I couldn't do it myself since I don't know how to use the circular saw and I don't know how to measure and angle the crown moulding the right way. I had Jacob help me!

I put regular sized computer speakers (about 5-6 inches in height) on each side of the mp3 shelf thingy. I crazy-glued the speakers down (so they wouldn't move around). I made a hole in the back for the cord (for the outlet). I used black net stuff (for latch and hook or whatever its called)-- use the really thin kind. 

materials:
crown moulding, wood, paint, cheap speakers, latch and hook canvas (to cover speakers), nails, nail gun

Spool Stand

I didn't really have any "real" wood for this, so I used extra base board we had lying around. I sawed it myself! Then I carved holes and hot-glued little pieces of wooden sticks (i used chopsticks) to hold the spool in place! Be sure to sand down the sharp spots. It's no fun getting a splinter.

materials:
wood (or baseboards like I used! lol), saw (please be careful!), TONS of wooden chopsticks or a long skinny wooden pole (from Michaels), wood carving utensil, hot glue, hammer, nails, sand paper
