I do all sorts of things. Mainly I play the drums and sing as far as music goes. I like to design posters, logos, websites, and other printed materials in Photoshop. Lately I've become fascinated with making furniture. I've gone on Craig's List in the Free section and found things that I can use to create 'new' furniture pieces. Currently I am just about finished with a 'line' that uses the filing cabinet drawer as the main ingredient. When I am done with this current filing cabinet, I will have four separate pieces of furniture. A sidetable. A desk with bookshelves. A hutch that will hang like a medicine cabinet. A modern lounger. Those are the pieces. That is the magic!

If you'd like to see more of my life go to www.corneliuscraft.net. There you'll find blogs, videos, photos, and general good times.

Heck for that matter, if you like my furniture, I'd be happy to talk and see what it is I can build for you.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Inspiration Towers

By Cornelius Craft Inspiration Towers is my second project and it too has filing cabinet drawers. Two to be exact. The point of this piece was to create an area where I could sit down for a minute, look up at some inspiring books, listen to some music, grab a pen, and idea-size! The table is not very deep as you can see, but this is part of the design. This way I don't get too comfortable and end up daydreaming. I am a chronic daydreamer!

Bottle Box Drawer Table

By Cornelius Craft Well, what I've got here is a remarkable piece of furniture. I created it using a filing cabinet drawer, some wood from a box spring I took apart, a beer bottle, some xmas lights, and a good deal of happy thoughts and other assorted 'found' items.

I didn't really have a plan for this project, just an idea. I'm very happy with the way this piece turned out. It is quite sturdy and I use it for a magazine rack and sidetable for » READ MORE
