Recessed Oak Medicine Cabinet Shelf with Mirror

This type of shelf has become a popular item from my home decor line, though no two I've made have been the same. It's a shelf that fits into the recess between wall studs where a medicine cabinet once was, though really it will fit betweeen any two studs that are the standard 16" spacing. The first I made was unfinished with moldings and a wide shelf on the bottom. This one is oak, rectangle in cross section and finished with stain and shellac, with adjustable shelves and a mirror in back. I've also done solid pine, painted white, and taller. This unit is about 24" high. Email me for a custom order, or order one like that shown by clicking on "Order Now" below.

Custom Recessed Wall Molding Shelf

OK so you have to imagine a little to see this in its final state. Hopefully the customer will send me a photo of it installed. He took out his bathroom medicine cabinet and wanted a nice shelf to go there in the recessed opening. He sent me photos and measurements, and we designed this - moldings around, beadboard in the back, routed built up molding below a wider shelf below. He chose to save on the cost of having me finish it, so the picture is not really attractive, but the shelf will look beautiful.

Solid Hardwood Jewelry Stand

This Solid Hardwood Jewelry Stand is made from solid walnut, with spindles hand-turned from paduak. The finish is natural shellac to highlight the dramatic grain in this wood. It measures approximately 2' high and 1' wide.

This client contacted me with a unique job. His wife had bought a jewelry stand on vacation in a small shop in Park City and it needed repair. They couldn't find anything like it anywhere, so they asked what I could do. Well, repair would have worked, but he decided to surprise his wife for Valentine's day with a new stand. He sent me photos of their furniture, and this was built to match.

The screen is for ear rings, the spindles inside for bracelets and necklaces. The hinges are bright brass, and there's a magnetic catch that holds it shut. The back is open so that it looks light enough to keep on top of your dresser or vanity. It has felt feet to protect the finish where it's placed.

Honestly, this is the type of project where I feel I have my niche - creating unique, totally custom products to meet specific individual tastes. It came together nicely, and my customer (though I think of them as clients) was happy. So happy Valentine's day!

Trophy Shelf

This Trophy Shelf is made from unfinished pine. The overall dimensions are 38"x24"x5.5". It was sized to hold soccer and baseball trophies for my nephews. I really like this shelf, and you'll find a variant of it in my house, smaller, sized to hold DVD's, but used instead for keepsakes and trinkets from vacations and stuff. You can stagger them or mount them on the wall diagonally for cool effect.

The shelf shown is made from pine, and is priced at $40.00 unfinished. Finishes or other woods are available of course. Other sizes too - the possibilities are limitless.

Built-Up Custom Crown Molding Wall Shelf

Made from Pine, this Built-Up Custom Crown Molding Wall Shelf was built per a customer's designs. Via email and phone we exchanged pictures and sketches for a week as she showed me her crown moldings and explained what she wanted and I showed variations in design until we reached the perfect shape for her. She paid her deposit and I went to work, and a week later it was ready to ship.

This, I think, is where I stand out from other places you can get shelves or home decor - I build to suit, to match what you have, instead of having to settle for something that isn't quite right.

This shelf is 26" long and 9" wide, made from 17 separately cut and sanded pices of pine - the shape was particular enough that moldings at the lumber store just didn't cut it and so I made my own. The the unfinished price is $80 not including shipping.

Above-Garage Storage Platform

OK, so the Above-Garage Storage Platform isn't exactly home decor, but if it gets the clutter out of your home and frees you up to decorate a room, does that count?

If you're like me, room for storage in your house gets a little tight. But how's your garage? Mine has 12' high ceilings. The garage door has all this empty space above it that, until now, was not being put to any use. Well, those days are no more. I did structural calculations, which as an engineer I can stamp and sign myself, ordered the materials, and built this platform. It can hold pretty much anything you'd put in your plastic buckets, and has about 30" of headroom. I've now got about 340 square feet of storage I didn't have before. If you have 3-4 feet above your garage door, in a double car garage, I can build one for you.

This may seem branching out a bit from my usual stuff, but as far as I'm concerned, this is a shelf. A big one, but a shelf none the less. Want one? One this size I will build for you on site for about $1,500, depending on how far you live from my home and the size and shape of your garage.

When I finished this one, I let the kids up with me for a few minutes. Then it was time to get them washed up and ready for bed. After his bath, my 4-year old son asked me, "Dad, um, can we go up in the...uh...the place that is so totally cool?" I like that much better than 'storage platform' or 'mezzanine.' I love being a dad!

Crown Molding Wall Shelf

You may have seen a Crown Molding Wall Shelf in stores or catalogs, but have you seen one that exactly matches the moldings in your home? I can make one for you. We recently remodeled our bathroom - we added beadboard, new moldings, and crown moldings, and painted the walls a deep red color. Then to perfect things, I made two shelves like this from crown molding matching that around the ceiling. In another room, I would have left them natural and stained them, but the white matched the decor.

This Crown Molding Wall Shelf is about 2 ft long. I would charge about $20 per foot on one like this, give or take, depending on the materials and finish you choose. If you want something more complex, I can do that too.

Faux Drawer Wall Shelf

This Faux Drawer Wall Shelf is really the first of my projects I ever sold. My wife took me in to quilted bear and showed me a shelf like this, only longer, and said that it was what she wanted on her wall. Only it was $100. So I convinced her to let me have a go at building the same thing myself. It turned out so well that she had to show all her friends. I have lost track of how many of these I've made. I've sold them at craft fairs, to friends, given them to family and friends as gifts, and we have two of them hanging in my house.

I can stain it, paint it and sand the edges (like the one shown) or whatever other sort of finish you want. Stained and varnished it adds a very formal feel to an entryway. Painted and sanded it gives a country-cottage type feel. Length can vary depending on where you put it. Mounting hardware is included and completely hidden.

Faux Drawer Wall Shelf unfinished price: $20 per drawer panel. Shelf shown is 3' long by 12" high by 5.5" deep.
