Just wanted to share a picture of the display shelf my husband built for me out of old barn wood.

Nothing better than old barn wood.  Looks wonderful.

I believe some of them are from that period.  Inks and poisons are my favorites -- but I will buy other types if I think they are interesting.  The other finds are my husband's -- he's into metal detecting and acquiring civil war relics.

Hey Karen,

Welcome to these parts, and thanks for showing us your shelves. Very nice job by your husband. Looks like Spalted Maple from over here.

Are'ya gonna introduce us to some of your collection?

We think the wood is very old oak with lots of character.

excellent looking display :) The shelving really ads to the old time visual effect and brings life to the bottles.

Thanks -- He decided he liked it so much, he "recycled" a little more and built a matching one for some of his Civil War relics.
