Here is a quick Mothers Day project that's very easy to build and will score you major brownie points.
I saw a similar project some time ago on Lumber Jocks made by Wooddiva as Christmas gifts.
I made five of them for a fundraiser we had for our park improvement fund and they sold out quick @ $45 each and made another two for the wife as well.
Very simple to make with a Kreg pocket hole jig, a table saw, a brad nailer and some 3/4 cedar fence boards. Measures 32” H x 24” W
I installed a French Cleat on the back to make it easy for install and keep it from leaning to one side or the other .
Stiles are 32”x2 1/4” Rails are 18”x 2 1/4 Mutons are 1” X 8 1/2 (x4) and 1”x 23” (x1) Box is 4” H x 5 1/2 D with 1” wide trim strips around the top to finish it off.
Thanks for looking…

Comment by Jim Delorme on April 25, 2012 at 7:56pm Steve, I'm sure she would love one and that would score you plenty of brownie points with the wife too.
