Default Desiderata Woodworking (Updated June 4th 2008).

I am selling custom handmade wooden plaques and crosses. i can cut out any name in a variety of fonts, can add just about any cartoon figure, sports logo, car logo, etc to the plaque as well. choose from a variety of wood (oak, maple, cherry, pine, jatoba,walnut, etc). These plaques are cut through the wood, not a stencil on top of the wood. Would make a great Xmas/wedding/Valentine's/Easter/anniversary/birthday gift!! Prices vary depending upon the complexity of the pattern/type of wood. These plaques are typically 8x11" in size but they can be almost whatever size you'd like them to be! Please feel free to email me novascroller@hotmail.com) or pm me for more details . Included are examples of my work as well as prototype clocks. I also can cut out various blank shapes for tole painting. Delivery available in most areas of the HRM for an extra $5. Also, any personalized items require a deposit of 50% of the items' cost. Thanks for looking! :-)
