Sometimes good things DO come in small packages! We’ve had a bunch of fun this spring making cedar planter boxes. Straight forward projects, customizable and great rustic designs. How can you kick that up a notch?? Make them mini of course!
Projects come and projects go. As a woodworker sometimes repetition happens. Every piece can’t be a custom commission or have wildly different specifications, sizes or species of wood. How can you combat stagnation when projects sometimes become repetitive?
Burnout happens to nearly everyone at some point. Being a woodworking and tackling projects at a slower pace still isn’t immune to this simple truth. How can you combat this? What’s ideal for reducing or recovering from burnout?
I’m not reinventing the wheel here, I’ll make that clear. Flower boxes, planter boxes and patio ‘dress up’ items have been created in many ways by many other woodworkers for a long time now. I’m just sharing my project thoughts and results.
As seasons change so do the projects one is working on. Rolling into spring often means more outdoor creations. How can you adapt as a woodworker? Should you adapt?
