Window Boxes

I finished the three window boxes for Bill.   Bill commissioned me to make these boxes after he saw the episode of the show where I made the planter boxes for Lynchs Package store.  The boxes are made using simple joinery.  The bottoms are dado into the all sides of the box.  The box parts are then joined together using butt joints and then nailed and glued.  The joints are strengthened by adding decorative strips that wrap around the butt joint, reinforcing it.  Bill is going to paint the boxes in an antique red and green for the trim.
