They Moved the Shower Head!
Often is the case that builders simply put the shower head too low for most people. When customers have their homes re-piped they will request the head be moved up. On acrylic tubs this leaves a big, ugly hole. No problem. With modern compounds and a little bit of effort I can make the hole disappear.

Mantle
The new homeowners were left with an unfinished project from the previous owners. They had a vision of a simple mantle and mirror over their fireplace. I was happy to oblige them. I fabricated this in a few hours from some left-over alder and crown molding.

Black Entertainment Center
Last decade builders were all about putting niches in homes. I filled this one with a large cabinet for storage and a small flat screen TV. The center doors swing up and slide over the top of the screen to stay out of the way for viewing.
