For a handmade piece of funrniture?
My husband is a qualified Joiner, he used to make handmade kitchens was made redundant and now in a job he hates. I was looking around the world wide web like you do and found a site with loads of plans for furniture to make. He could make them easily and has most of the tools, i said he sould try selling some. He is going to make one of these in a few months for our garden (when he finishes the decking) and a couple matching chairs.
I am quite handy with a sowing machine so could make the pillows myself - but how much would you value one of these? Or be happy to pay for it handmade and finishing in your choice of colour and fabric? -- so individual to you?
Trying to work out if it will be worth buying the wood and a couple of the bigger tools he doesnt have. Thank you ladies for your feedback and opinions xxx
