APPLIQUE TRICK his and hers bedside tables



 Im sharing the secret to my nightstand embellishments,
and how the look can bring two pieces together.




These fancy bits are solid brass and came from a broken mirror frame.


I removed the original front bottom piece of this nightstand and installed a new
piece of wood as well as new legs. 



Then with a pencil traced out the area I wanted cut, so it marched the line of the scrolls.


Next I cut with the jigsaw and sanded the edges smooth.


Because these embellishments are made of metal I had to pre-drill for my nails.



This set of bedside tables started as two different pieces but with similar style.


I brought them together using the same legs, the same pulls, and the same embellishments.


 

You can find side by side before and after pic here.

Barn Building and Barn Plans Why So Popular

Barn buildings have a certain instantly recognisable charm and character. Barn type buildings have a multitude of potential uses such as for agricultural uses, storage of extra stuff from your house and as a nice get away building away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the home providing a nice retreat/study or even a home office. But they can also provide commercial opportunities for warehouse type units which you can rent out.

Some people have even chosen to take the basic design aesthetics of a barn building and convert it into their home with the added benefits of high ceilings and aesthetically pleasing appearance. You could also build a barn for your horses or go for a barn style structure and design for your new home.

Barn Plans With Living Quarters

There are many plans available with living quarters designed into the building and some of the choices you will need to look at if you decide to build a barn type building, whether for residential ro storage use, will include decisions about the type of roof you prefer.

A popular style choice for a barn is a gambrel type roof but another popular choice is a Napa style roof which has a lower profile and is suitable for lower profile buildings and garages.

Barn Plans

There are a huge range of plans available on the market which range from barn plans with living quarters, 28 foot by 40 foot plans which will accommodate four large horse stalls and many other options. Make sure when purchasing your plans to check that you are getting properly scaled and diagrammed plans which are easy to follow and preferable with step by step instructions and a detailed materials list.

Horse barn building plans should for example include the layout of the horse stalls, tack room and wash area. Quality barn plans should also include elevations of your barn from every side, particularly if you are going for a barn type residential dwelling.

Pole Barn Plans

Pole barn plans for residential use are incredibly popular and there is also the possibility of using such plans to build commercial buildings such as warehouses from which you can earn a nice rent. You will need to ensure that the doors are sufficiently wide and tall to accommodate larger vehicles and deliveries.

In conclusion it is clear that barn type buildings offer endless possibilities from the smallest garden shed to a large commercial building. For this reason you need to do your due diligence and ensure the barn plans that you intend working from are adequate for the job in hand.

Shop clean up and Mouldings

A little Fine Tuning...

I was working on the heritage door the end of last week, the inside mouldings to be more specific. I was planning on getting into the final front window surrounds over the weekend but things didnt pan out that way due to the fact that my client is actually busier than I am! I should back track and mention that my writing book, the graph paper scribbler I use for all of my wood notes, including all of my templates for the moulding profiles I had made earlier this spring, was left behind in Cape Breton this summer. I knew this for the past few weeks and was trying to set up a time with my client to go over and visit the neighbours house again. Get some new profiles off of the window treatments and finally get this thing done!
Anyhow, because of the world we live in and everybody seems to never have enough time, (myself included) I wasnt able to get the profiles so I spent yesterday re-organising my shop space. It was really getting cramped with the way things were, the door only accessible from one side and one end, my offcuts from the project starting to way in on my fragile sanity; I needed to move my bench back over against the wall and re-jig the doors work station.
I have been using my shop bents (a Krenov inspired work horse) with some off cuts of walnut as runners to span the bents and a thin sheet of luan as my main template for the door. This worked out fine while I made the frame for the door but now that Ive come to fine tuning my miters and mouldings I really needed to beef things up.
Before I was able to really fine tune all of my miters I had to be sure the door was lying as flat as I could make it, and through it all staying perfectly square. A kind of challenge in this small space where every move means moving all of the pieces around again...and again, and again. (have I mentioned I need a bigger shop lately?) So yesterday morning I purchased a sheet of 3/4" plywood and got a few batons of Ipe from a friend, ipe is a South American hardwood that is very heavy, hard and dense. These 2" x 2" x 6 batons will straddle my bents and the plywood will finish the work area. The door with its 1/4" luan template slid easily from my work bench over to this make shift one. The shop bents I made are from hickory, another incredibly hard and dense wood. This turned out to be the perfect species for my shop bents- they really need to be structurally sound around my shop. If we consider that between the oak, the ipe and the plywood alone theyre probably supporting close to 200 lbs!
No worries, theyre working great!
I should mention that the plans and building instructions for these are included in my new book due out in November.
So that was my day yesterday, sweeping and cleaning and pushing and lugging...good for the soul to get things back in a nice state. Cleanliness is what again?
So this morning I spent a few hours going around each one of the panels to insure all of my miters are clean and crisp.
The first thing I needed to do was build a little bench top appliance to securely hold the mouldings as I worked them. Getting them to this level was straight forward between some bench dogs, but now that theyre all mitered...holding them in place while you try to take the lightest shaving off can be a real challenge.






















I had a 2" x 6" x 4 slab of heavy maple and cut out a few miters and batons with some off cuts. These in turn were glued to the surface of the plank and will act as small fences to hold the work pieces in place while I fine tune things. I used some cyanoacrylate glue that sets up in about 10 seconds. This is all that I needed and off I went to fit and tune these door back mouldings. They honestly didnt require a ton of work but a few places I did get out the moulding planes and onto some sandpaper.






















A couple of hours and theyre done. My plan right now is to go over to the clients tomorrow and get those other few profiles...






















Stay tuned.
