Projects

• Shaker-style rocker

A hand-woven seat and round mortise and tenon joints are two of the details in our version of a classic Shaker rocker.

• Birdhouse

Here's a birdhouse with a new "angle" - eight of them in fact.Our octagonal house design has room for up to four bird families. And the unique design makes it easy to "add-on" another level.

• Shaker footstool

Here's a great chance to try the same techniques we used on the rocker. Just make (or buy) a few dowels, purchase some cotton tape and set aside a weekend to make this handy stool.

Techniques

• Stave construction
• Working with dowels
• Weaving a seat
