Few weeks after our wedding, my husband and I bought a house with a big backyard in the countryside. We have the house renovated and while visiting there, he could not stop of dreaming of what he can do with the vacant space.
He was planning of making a carpentry shop for him to work on during our weekend and holiday visits. We lived and worked in the city and forty-five minutes away is this, our peaceful haven in the northern part of the city.
We loved our place and when the construction of his shop was completed and when he saw his workbench, he was very excited in building buffet table furniture for our new home away from the busy and fast life of the city. My husband is a builder as well as an artist; he can easily build something out of scrap or from a piece of wood.
I remember one time, he brought home five several tree logs chain-sawed from fallen trees after a strong typhoon. From these logs he builds a chair, a table and buffet cabinets in our backyard. He bought a thick circular glass and placed it on top of three logs to make a special backyard table set. He is a collector and he loves cabinets, he always bought magazines to get more inspirations and styles so he can mix them together with his own style of building cabinets.
He believes furniture like buffet furniture are similar and simple to build but if you saw something that caught your attention, you’ll know for instance, that is an especial work of art. Magazines weren’t always enough for him, he browses also from the Internet to see what are popular styles and look for the dynamics he like to add in his craft.
He likes our house be filled with guests and parties especially on holidays so he’s making our house equip with cabinets, chairs and tables that can accommodate all of our events.
