That's a really nice shelf for the berm shed, and a lovely table as well.  You're developing some fine woodworking skills!  (Unless you already had them, I suppose.)

Thank you, Julia! I definitely did not have any woodworking skills upon arrival, and was in fact mildly trepidatious about power saws. Josiah has a fair amount of carpentry experience, so I’ve been picking up a little as we go and have started attempting some basic projects on my own.

Hi Jen. I see you found a good way to use that wool yarn. You'll show us that insert when you finished it and it's in front of the door window, I'm confident.
 
I'm gonna teach you a lesson! Start by looking at this tiny ad:
