Wooden Structure for "Monsanto Seeds" Finished


Yesterday my Dad and I built the vertical shelf for Monsanto Seeds which will be on display at the Garfield Park Conservatory from August 8 through December 9 for Chicago's Twelve.


I used a base that my friend Andy found in the alley, some $1 scrap wood from my local hardware store, and wood that had been sitting around in my Dad's yard.



I am thankful that my Dad was able to help me.  He has any tool I could need.


My Dad sanding down some of the screws that stuck out.


The finished product!  Now I need to sculpt the 8 plants to put inside the jars and connect the jars to the stand with jute.  I am almost finished!




Here is the original sketch.
