These are a set of bookends that were made out of some of the left over Ambrosia Maple from a hope chest project I just built, and the contrasting wood is some walnut I had in the scrap pile. My daughter is turning 16 in December and she wanted a hope chest for her birthday, and bookends for Christmas. The bottom has felt on it, and the pictures are behind some plexi. I slapped a couple of generic pics in them, I am sure Johnny Depp and Tim Tebow will end up in there. Go Figure :) She is out of the house right now so I was able to snap a couple of pics of them before I box and wrap them.
A special thanks to Steve Ramsey (Woodworking for Mere Mortals) for the design and the templates!
Thanks for looking!
John
