Projects of Vicki

Vicki of Maryland, USA v.hayden@verizon.net displays these nice projects and describes them below.

"I built this arbor from pressure treated lumber and stained it with 2 different shades of gel stain. If you look closely you can see the bean vines that have started growing on it. There are some sweet pea vines in there too. The big plant at the base is a Moonflower."

"This Foot Stool is made from Pine. I used my Dremel Scroll Saw to cut an intricate crab in the side panels. The top and sides are joined to the front with biscuits. The top and sides are rounded over using a router."

"I used Yellow Pine for this front porch hanger scrolled part and salt treated for the hanger section. The scrolled part is stained with Cedar Cuprinol, the hanger with Mahogany. There's a slot I made in the hanger to receive the scroll. I did that with the drill press and cleaned-up the edges with my new chisels."

"My Pyramid with Morning Glories climbing on it, is the first project I made from plans and it was almost harder than some of my own designs. The plans came from the May 2001 issue of Birds and Blooms."

"The "Beware of dog" sign is from plain pine and the words are burned in with a wood burner.  I gave it 3 coats of outdoor polyurethane."

"This wheelbarrow makes a great planter, and its easy to move around the deck. The heart shapes cut into the wheel were done with a Forstner bit to form a triangle and then sand down 2 sides to form a heart."
