A place for everything

DH pointed out this beautiful tool chest to me while we were at Port Townsend Shipwright’s Co-Op last week. Not only is everything fitted in beautifully, the chest/cabinet is gorgeous. Notice the grain in the wood of the righthand door.

I have great respect for that kind of beauty and order, a hallmark of craftsmanship. It makes me more dismayed at my own “heapers and mounders” approach to desktop and craft bench order.

  1. Beautiful wooden shelf with racks on it to keep the tools in order and safe in one place:)

  2. Beautiful wood and woodwork I also find exciting. And those things are so hard to find today. In fact, I love wood and wood objects. And I do regret not taking woodworking seriously when in high school. But it wasn’t all my fault as my teacher was a “coach” – one of those who thought you built character by belittling people and making fun of them. So that was a drag and not very motivating.

    Beauty and order are nice, too, but not something that you should be concerned with so long as you know where things are and can find them in the heaps and mounds. I have a feeling you have your own sense of order. 🙂 And I happen to know firsthand of your artistic skills.
