While winter is the busiest time for my small furniture shop, some summer projects are always in the works. In this case a new toy chest is in order for my young son. This particular one is being crafted of mahogany plywood with pine accents. One of the nice accents of this piece I think is the "wave" pattern that surrounds the bottom of the chest. It serves a dual purpose here of not only being a nice decorative addition but also acting as something of a "kickplate" protecting the more expensive mahogany sides from getting dinged and dented by little shoes. The top of the chest, which is almost done will be a bi-fold, having the ability to open halfway or all the way. In this way there is still access to the chest even if there might be some other toys stacked up on it. I think my son will be quite pleased with this addition to his room.
