House No. 23: Shanty



House No. 23: Shanty
Repurposed scrap wood & wood glue
3 in. x 3.5 in. x 2 in.
023/365; 01/23/11

Today's house is the antithesis of yesterday's McMansion. Plus, it doesn't smell of fried food.

This was a collaborative piece. I designed, measured, and glued it together, but my husband worked the power tools. That's what she said.

It's rough and tumble, this little shanty, but I think it's sweet. The wood has so much character on its own.
