Cabinetry and Joinery (Games of chess)

This started out as a gift from a dear friend of a set of chessmen made of box wood and evony of which lead to making a new chessboard, coffin and stand. In the next photo this is shown in the pack down version ready to take to future events and chess matches. The board is made of tulip wood, and what I believe could be mahongony, the chest made of tulip wood and is velvet lined to hold the chessman. There is carving performed on both the board edges and the chess coffin. The board's carving is oak leaves, and the box, not shown here contains a cross over between a Celtic cross and a rose, with the front side containing rose leaves. The carving was preformed by M'Lady Christiana Elizabeth Constable.

This photo shows the board ready to go to an event.

Color combinations on a cabinetry and furnitures is the shining vessel of the menu. It added good ambiance to a person and gives more delightful feeling. Try and search for south shore kitchen design blog that shows a powerful point of it with its beautiful and organized cabinetry.

My First Attempt At Elizabethan Garb

The photo below shows my first time at making a design and making the garment of an Elizabethan era dress. In Elizabethan times a dress was made of several pieces starting with a kirtel and working outwards to the overskirt. This photo show this with the white, being the kirtel (made of white brocade table cloth) and the outer dress which is actually two pieces, a wool overskirt, and a wool vest type jacket also known as a doublet. It is trimed with white cording. The ruff shown is made of silk. This garment was made in early September of 2008.
