Description

The listing, your very own (wooden) MAID or BUTLER has ended.

Are you searching for that really unique piece of furniture for your place? Something that no one else is going to have? How about your very own French Maid or Butler? Always there to hold your cold beer, maybe your remote controls, or even the latest issue of your favorite magazine, Frenchie and PeeWee work cheap, never complain about the long hours and are ever faithful.

They are both custom designed and handmade by me out of one inch pine and painted with a durable, oil-based paint that is easy to clean up. The bases, also one inch pine, are stained with Provincial Pine before receiving two coats of clear polyurethane. She is 41½" tall and 17½" from the tip of her fingertips to the back of her skirt with a 13"x9" ornate silver tray. He is 36" tall and 10½" from the tip of his fingertips to the back of his shirt with a 6½"x8¼" wooden tray.

Then winner gets to pick which one they want - the French Maid or the Butler - but remember you only get one!

I also made a bride and a groom for the manager of the band Kool & the Gang to use at her daughter's wedding, so you know these are well made. If you would like to see photos of those, message me for the link.

Quote of the Day

God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Thomas Jefferson

Questions & Comments

DUDE! ThESE ARE AWESOME!!!!! I am moving and could really use the maid by my front door to throw my keys onto! Anyway this could be shipped?

Well, thank you! The only set I have shipped were the bride and groom, but I knew those were going to be shipped so I designed them to be disassembled. The maid and the butler here are not designed to come apart, so they would have to be shipped complete. The only way I could do that would be to take it to a UPS Shipping Center and have them box and ship it. She only weighs like 6 to 10 pounds, so the weight isn't the problem, it's the size. I'm not sure what it would cost, but I doubt it would be cheap....

how tall and do you ship?

Aug 15th, 2011 at 10:18:10 PM PDT by

She is 41½" tall and ... he is 36" tall. Shipping would be expensive since this would have to be shipped complete. I did not design these to be taken apart and shipped flat since they were only to be sold locally.
