Book Description: The Shakers wanted their belongings to reflect the simplicity and perfection revered in their religion. Their furniture, with its clean lines and attention to detail, is still the most popular style of furniture more than a century after it was first designed. This book walks readers through a variety of Shaker-inspired projects ranging from beginning to advanced. It provides an overview of hallmark Shaker details, illustrated step-by-step instructions, and a gallery of photographs of successful projects.


Customer Reviews
Excellent book, March 20, 2001
Reviewer: Wayne Cease from Atlanta, GA USA
This book covers the design elements and construction of Shaker styled furniture. It also lightly covers the history.

There are several plans, unfortunately not the one on the cover. But, it should not be too hard to take what's in the book and create a plan for it as sizes are given.

Some more plans covering the gallery items, especially the cover item, would have been nice. But, overall it is a really good book.
