You know you might be a bit of a wood-nerd when you begin buying wood not because you need it, but because it’s beautiful and you /have/ to have it. This was the case with the natural-birch panel I used to make this spec LP-1 album storage unit.
You typically wouldn’t think that birch and maple would go well together — like whipped cream on vanilla ice cream… too much “light” — but with the red interior color and black backing, this unit really pops. Of course, the gorgeous variegation of the birch helps a lot.
It was made as a spec piece and will be at Bay Home in a few days. If you’d like to check it out there in person, per them a visit. However, if you’d like to get the jump on it (and perhaps get a better price), hit me up before Friday afternoon (tomorrow — 4/3).
I have a bit of the birch paneling left, too, so if you have a design in mind, let me know…
