Baby Gate



This was something a friend of mine asked if my husband could make. We actually had a lot of fun making them. With most crafts my hubs cuts the wood and I draw the shapes/lines on wood, sand and paint and assemble. But this was a two person job. It was fun cutting wood with him, sanding together to save time, and then I would hold the wood pieces in place while he screwed the pieces together. We hadn't ever actually worked on a project together, we usually did our things separate even though we "worked together" on crafts.

The gate turned out great, not perfect, but great. My friend ordered two gates- one for the top and one for the bottle of her stairs. The 2nd one was dang near close to perfection. 

Now we have another friend who saw the gates painted and hung and wants to order one for her home. I love vinyl work- but this is a lot of fun. And breaks up the monotony from the craft stuff we have been doing for the last 3 years.
