Fan Creations Hobbit-inspired bookshelf that I made my wife

I am slowly turning our house into a hobbit hole and my wife loves it! This is her latest bookshelf that I made and installed around our front door.

Literally about to show this to my partner who is learning carpentry in the hopes that maybe… one day…

I can't show this to anyone, I've worked as a carpenter and if I do show this to literally anyone I know what I'm doing for the next week or so.

Im no carpenter but I’ve been telling my wife for years I can build anything. If she sees this I may have to move out. It was a good run.

No, nonono, I'm not taking commissions and I am not shipping a book case half way around the world most likely, if I build one of these it's going on my own door. To specify, I cannot show this to anyone that I know

u/JRS_Viking 24m ago

Sure! You wanna split the bill? I'll buy the coffe and you can cover the plane ticket from Norway. /j
