The base comes from the bottom of old kitchen wood stoves.
"HANDS ON: ALIENS IN THE ATTIC. Wacky, fun, iconoclastic--these are the hallmarks of a folk artist, and P.E.I. Native Kerras Jeffery has them in spades". NATIONAL POST Jan/2011
This blog changed from a daily blog to a blog to celebrate the folk art of Kerras Jeffery, as well as his reproduction furniture and other projects. His studio & shop closed in 2017 following his passing.

I made these pet beds for dogs or cats - our big cat Timothy tried out one of them.

Kitchen Islands made from old Church Panels
I got these panels that came from an old New Brunswick church - I worked them in two kitchen islands.
I had some old drawers and worked them in. The size of the counter top is 28" x 70" - they are 37" high.

General Store Sign for Millage & Lloyd, St. Peter's
I had a client in a couple of weeks ago looking to get a sign made. Here's the sign I made - the general store is in St. Peter's, P.E.I.
Here's a bunch of photos during the making of the sign.
Here's a link to their Facebook Page:

I made a few extra horses while I was at it for future use.

A visit to "B.C. Antiques" last evening
I took a drive to "B.C. Furniture& Antiques Ltd." last evening and bought a few things off the
truck. And I though I had wild loads.
B.C. Antiques are in New Annan ( between Summerside and Kensington on Rte. 2 ). It's owned and operated by Lowel Cotton and his son Kent - they are great people to deal with!!!

Multi-drawer Island
I picked up these neat set of drawers and worked them into this island - am happy to say this one is sold.
Screen Doors
I still make screen doors - I've bean making them for 20 years. Over the years I changed from making them from pine to using all cedar now.
The spindles are hand turned on a wooden lath. The doors have removeable screen frame. All the joints are glued with 3/4" wooden dowel.

Wooden Tank Corner Table & Nail Box Magazine Rack
They don't get any older then this old wooden gas tank. I had a set of
four brass legs up in attic - this would be a corner table.
Yesterday i picked up this old nail box. So i looked around here and found this base - an old water tank stand. This would make a great magazine rack or a place for yarn and netting needles.
