French chic
Well, it’s done! I wish I could make more, but the thing is I’m out of time and need to make other items too. I finished this day bed long-long time ago but the textile part took a lot of time, because I was sewing it while my daughter was sleeping 🙂 Then I ordered a cat and a dog…

Marquetry wardrobe -WIP
These holidays were too long! I missed my tools and tablesaw:) Before them (damn, it was last year!) I started remaking marquetry wardrobe, which I didn’t even finish. I managed to cut side parts, today was a lathe day!
Here’s the old version of the wardrobe:
Petit point for pillow
My current petit point project – miniature pillow. This time it is 49 count silk gauze. I was going to use it for a bed, but I changed the colors so I’ll have to use it for something else.
New Year holidays
We had very long holidays – almost 12 days! I had so many plans – to make new table for my Proxxon table saw, then making jigs for it, even my husband was going to help me with my kid, but here we are. Monday!
I’m afraid this year I won’t be very productive with furniture, actuallly… we’ll see, but I’m preparing for the worse scenario, while hoping that it’s going to be just fine.
Anyway, I’ll show you something from the last year!
It’s 3mm wide bobbin lace edging – I’m pretty happy with the result, especially with new entomology pins, they are so thin, that I realised I needed thinner cotton thread for this edging.
I already used this edging for two pillows, here is one WIP.
Music stand
Well, it’s finished! Pretty happy with it – though I had my troubles with hinges, which was a surprise for me.
Marquetry panels – finished
Well, actually the stand itself is almost done, but I decided to show a bit of process
Marquetry for music stand
I only needed one more hour today to finish the second panel for the door, almost half of it is done. So I’ll show only the first one for now. Well, I need to sand it, add couple more details, but overall it’s done.
Music Stand
I almost finished the new item, I only need to make doors with marquetry, but this is the good part 🙂 This stand is very similar to the wardrobe I started making last year but didn’t finish. And the designer of this item is the same as with art nouveau sofa I made quite some time ago.
Spinet Desk in Instagram style
I finished this desk last week, but needed to make some books for it:
Painter’s chest
Definitely not the most glamorous piece of furniture, but I love it!
