perfume holder

This was the second project I started and the first that I finished. I’m relatively happy with how it turned out, but I learned a few things.
1) using a hole saw without a drill press is probably not a great idea.
2) cutting joints that interset at more than one angle is a challenge
3) giving the result to your wife is a good idea because she can look past the imperfections to see the thought behind it.

Anyway, my wife likes a perfume called curve. They’ve started making a few new varieties so I’ve bought a few of them over the years. She ended up with bottles all over the place along with other small items the cats enjoyed knocking off the dresser. This seems to help solve the problem. It has 4 holes to hold all her bottle with a little room left in the tray to store knick-knacks.

The wood is cherry and the bottom is 1/4 inch cherry ply. Hope you guys like it.
