Large 5 Ft Map Of Long Island
We were contacted by an American customer requesting a map of Long Island and they wanted it to be large. We love doing the bigger maps. She was looking through our “Previous Works” page and came across this map we did a few years ago.

New Style Wood Map Of NS
The last wood map of Nova Scotia we completed was Wood Map Of NS With A Twist. When we cut out the map, we were left with the thin layer of plywood with the map cut out of it.

Wood Map Of NS With A Twist
…Actually a few twists in this map of NS to arrive at the finished project. Makes things interesting. We got a request for a map of NS from an American gentleman wanting a surprise for his wife. I like him already.

DIY Wooden Door Stop
A couple of months ago we laid new hardwood floors in the bedroom and when we put the room back together we decided to take apart the floor mirror and hang it on the back of the bedroom door.

Wood Map of British Columbia
We got an email this week from a girl inquiring about a wood map of BC. In the email she included a couple of Nova Scotia wood maps she found on our For Sale page. Since she was mailing the map to a friend who is getting married, she wanted a smaller map.

Christmas In August?? Making Wooden Candles
No definitely not. In fact I don’t even like Christmas in December if you must know. What I do like is making things. All kinds of things. Even Christmas ornaments in August.
I had some free time while Jim was busy in the workshop so I decided to make some wooden candles for the tree.

Painted Drop Cloth Pillow Covers
I’ve been on the hunt for new 20 x 20 pillow covers for the sofa for months. First I checked local then the real search began on the internet. Everything was either too plain, too dark, to busy, or more commonly… too expensive. I did find one set I liked but they were over $80. Just for pillow covers, not actual pillows! I can find a lot of things to spend $80 on but not pillow covers. Especially when I can make my own for much less.

Metal and Wood Centerpiece
I didn’t know what to call this really. Saw something similar on pinterest and thought…I would like to have one of those and it could be fun to make.

Building a Couple Of Urns
Friends of ours asked if Jim would build them two urns. Unusual request…but an honor really. Always up for a challenge we agreed to give it a go.

Two More NS Flag Maps
When we finished up our previous map making projects of NS and PEI, I told you we had two more to make. So this is how that went down.
