Projects at the daughter's house

Spent weekdays this week babysitting grandkids at my daughter's house.  Not much else to do while nap time and rain.   Hard to look around without seeing something I've built.   Here's a few examples.

 

Coaster set with foray into hand-cut dovetails.  One of my first woodworking projects was one of these with butt joints.   Decided to revisit and make with dovetails for each of the kids.  (cherry)

I have three adult daughters.   All their houses have similar assortments of items.  It's hard to walk into a room and not see something I've made or refinished.
