Carpenter, cabinetmaker, woodcarver, joiner, The French use the term menuiser to describe all these crafts. I feel that this term fits what I do on several levels. Though I do not consider myself French in the true sense of the word. I am Franco Ontarian. But that is another story. I use wood as my primary material to build the furniture that I design.This blog is about my process.

I Have Been Collecting
I have been collecting lots and lots of used laundry detergent bottles.
This is yet another idea in my recycling /re purposing train of thought.
The idea was to use the plastic from the laundry detergent bottles to make a large floor piece that glowed .
I plan on putting some lights in it and propping it up from the inside with threaded rods
I really wanted to have it made to put in a show with John Roberts a WhiteStone Gallery member but collecting the plastic has proven to be harder than I thought.So I had to back out of the show.
I do have a start to the project , I have made a 3’X3‘ semi cupped shape, It could be a wall piece, but I really want to continue collecting to make it sit on the floor.
