Jeff's handy

If you know Jeff, you would not even suspect that Jeff is handy and good with tools. To be honest, he wasn't, until fairly recently. But now that's he's been initiated into the glory of powertools, he's become pretty good at it.

For our living room, I wanted more storage. Frankly, we are both untidy people and tend to leave our stuff on any horizontal surface. So we need some place to hide it. I asked Jeff to build me something. I painted it lavender and put baskets in it that we got for cheap.



(BTW, the wall color is much closer to the real color - not what was shown in a previous post. The lavender is pretty accurate, though it's not quite so patchy-looking in person)

I like it. Jeff did a good job. Now, he just has to make another one for by his chair. And something like this, but with doors, for the dining room. And maybe something for my sewing room. And ...

I believe that me not nagging him to do it was payment enough for him. :)
