WOW! I have not seen this totally put together but will in about an hour when David and our friend Kevin load it up on Kevin's truck and we deliver it to our dear, dear friend Olga! Olga became a Stampin' Up demonstrator a while back and she has outgrown her storage big time. So one afternoon we all sat around her dining room table and designed this cabinet. (Needs to be compact as she doesn't have much space.) David in essence has taken my entire stamping area and put it into a small cabinet. The two sides close up to make it look like any other cabinet. Notice the drawers for the re-inkers; the ribbon rack and the place for her stamp pads. There are 26 drawers in this cabinet (my husband is now the drawer making champion of the world!). Notice the larger bottom drawer on the center right - for her Big Shot! She has drawers for stamps, for paper, for punches and shelves for her Clear Mount Stamp cases. I'm SO excited for her and SO PROUD of my husband. This cabinet is solid maple and heavy as all get out. So hopefully David won't re-injure his back. Oh and notice the piano hinges on the swing-outs (my name) to hold all the heaviness of the furniture plus whatever Olga stores in them. Oh I almost forgot - right under the top where you can't see are two pull-out boards for extra work space. The Lord has truly blessed my David with such a wonderful gift of working with wood.
Thanks for stopping by - Shari
PS: These pictures were taken at the wood shop here at Laguna Woods Village - thus the legs on the top pictures - LOL!!!!!

This is AMAZING! You're lucky to have such a handy and talented husband- and Olga is so fortunate to get this. Thanks for sharing!
What a work of art. You have one awesomely talented craftsman in David, Shari. Both you and your friend are blessed and lucky indeed to share the fruits of his labors. Thanks for sharing.
PS With imagination and planning it just shows you can have it all in one place.
I do NOT have worded to express what a great piece of crafting furniture this is! Your husband and you guys who designed it did a FABULOUS job. He should go into business, I WANT ONE!!!! lol

Oh my goodness!!! This is fantastic!!! Your hubby did a wonderful job - what a perfect thing for a Stampin' Up! Demo!
What a fabulous cabinet. Your David certainly has been blessed with a very special talent. I am sure your friend is going to be beside herself when she sees it.
Oh Wow!!!! I am so happy for your friend, yes your husband has a lot of talent. Now if I could get my husband to stop making bee hives and make a cabinet like that for me...

Wow! I only hope he made good notes for his "recipe"...on how he made this wonderful 'work of Art' ...because he could name his price and still sell more than he could ever make! Lucky Olga.
Thanks for sharing, Shari!

I am drooling all over my work space. This is one of the best storage pieces I have ever seen, possibly the best. Your husband is truly blessed with a wonderful gift. How luck for you and your friend.
Absolutely amazing, if I show this to my husband he will hate your husband for making it..LOL and JUST KIDDING, he will be upset I found it and want one now!!! blessings!Kelli
Holy Cannoli! This cabinet is beyond words! Your husband has truly been blessed with talent - lucky you and lucky Olga! Now THAT's what I call a fruitful brainstorming session ;-)
WOW!! This is truely a piece of art. I am so showing this to my husband!
I am sooooo jealous of this! Your husband should publish/sell the plans for this so other demonstrators can find someone to build them one. He is so talented. I can only imagine how proud you are of him!
wow, seriously WOW, a work of ART. I know a few people that would LOVE this. I'm just going with previous commenters here and say yes he could easily make a few and sell them for a fair price and people would just want more.
Me and wood well I can work a little with it, I can cut laminated click flooring and the edging with the mitre saw n block but that's it.
Oh my gosh! This is a msterpiece! You truly are blessed with a talented husband!
Wow! Your DH is a very handy man. What an excellent job he did on the cabinet. your friend should be proud to own such a fine example of stamping storage.
Wow!! Just beautiful - Olga is a very lucky lady. Your husband if very talented :)
so jealous!!!!this is just fantabulous!!!!
what a great DH you have!!!!
tfs:)
So beautiful as well as practical. Love it!!! Your husband is very talented. Any plans to make more?
He so needs to make them and sell them. This is the best thing I have seen. PERIOD!
Oh Shari, Your husband should think about drawing up the patterns with instructions and cutting list etc and selling them online. I'm sure the pattern and instructions would sell like hot cakes. I know I'd buy one for my hubby. He's handy but working from a pattern would mean all that figuring out was done. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing and I hope your friend is enjoying her wonderful cabinet.
Or alternatively sell the plans to a cabinet maker to produce for the crafting market. This is a superb idea and a great space saver. I'd buy one and I'm sure loads of others would too.Hugs xx
Is this for sale somewhere? i need this badly! :)
