That is truly inspiring work.  I built my own home or am building it.  One day I will be filling it with furniture also.

Thanks for the inspiration.

That's beautiful work. Can we see the inside?
Best,

What everyone else said. Tasteful designs in gorgeous wood you harvested yourself; it does not get any better than that.

Hate to tell you though, you are not done. A nice oriental rug (or your choice) under the table and chairs would pop all that beautiful wood and dampen the echoes a bit. Better adopt a sheep.

Yes I agree. My wife is picking one out but she wanted me to finish first. Thanks for all the nice comments.

There are two theories to arguing with a woman... neither works.

Very nice!  How is the chest attached to the stand?  Does it just rest there, or is it fastened in some way?  I'd love to see the inside of the chest as well.  Shelves?  Drawers?  Both?
