Oh my goodness I burst out laughing when I saw this, thank you so much for tagging me, I can't believe they're up to three now!!!!

That still remains one of my favorite podcast episodes, I feel as though I learned so much about the Shakers both in terms of ideology as well as crafts

My current project, inspired by the Duan Family Center for Computing and Data Sciences at Boston University! You never know where you're going to find inspiration for a project, such as when you're driving into Boston on the Mass Pike! #woodworking #design #inspirationakl

Hand crafted, meticulously hand decorated (pyrography and leaf), reclaimed white tiger oak heirloom KEEPSAKE BOX! The serene tree scape and flock of geese celebrates the beauty of the natural world. Amazing illustrations and burning by my unbelievably talented friend @jendiarenzocreative.

The Jasper Skull Valuables Cabinet, a pure passion project for me. I am so deeply pleased with how this cabinet turned out that I'm eager to make another! These diminutive cabinets are an extremely rare form and I just LOVE THEM

And my favorite of all of these secret compartments! I don't remember where I saw this but it was definitely on a piece from the period that I encountered somewhere along the way. The amazing Marquetry skull 💀 was handmade by my friend Elena @woodsimka (on IG)

I'll be happy to post more soon

Ah yes, pyrography!

I hope you do and would love to see your version of it! Do you use machines at all or strictly hand tools?

I was completely overwhelmed when I first saw the Duomo in Siena Italy. I had never seen patterns on top of patterns like that and I knew I wanted to start incorporating black and white stripes in my work more. Secret compartment 2 was the perfect spot!

I would estimate 150-200 hours of work spread out over 1.5 years (I had other commission work come up and such so I would set this aside for a few months here and there). I thought it was going to sell it but realized I didn't want to when the time came, so I kept it 😁.

My goodness these are the coolest mugs I have seen in a very long time! Your whimsical approach to the artwork is fun and fresh and executed exceptionally well.

OMG I absolutely love these!

Secret compartments have always struck me as something fun, that make the piece feel even more precious. This piece has three secret compartments which I will reveal one at a time.

Thank you Pete! It was a passion project for sure. I enjoyed making this so much.

Thank you! And thank you for reposting, I'm new here so the help is appreciated!

Love the skull! Beautiful fit

That is absolutely rad!!! Beautiful work

The Jasper Skull Cabinet, 2025. Boston, Ma . One of my most favorite pieces I've ever made. A mash up among historical styles spanning Pilgrim to William & Mary. I'll share more pictures and videos soon!
