UNUSED VTG EASI BILD DIY WOODWORKING CRAFT PATTERN 555 Artists Easel

Description: This fun pattern allows you to easily create a vintage project that you can personalize, use, and pass down! The pattern is copy righted from the 1950's, and is complete, uncut and unused. It is pattern number 555 from 1954. The pattern is for an artist's easel; great to use, great for display of art! It would make a great gift, as well. These types of woodworking patterns are called DIY (Do It Yourself). This one is from the Easi-Bild Pattern Company, Pleasantville, NY. The popularity of DIY “do-it –yourself” home improvement and decorating projects began in the early to mid 20th century, and especially after WWII (returning soldiers went at home buying due to the GI bill with a vengence). The housing boom and consumer demand for new home furnishings and interior decoration along with unprecedented amounts of leisure time sparked an interest in creating your own home woodworking shops. Homeowners became interested in making their own furniture, storage units, and other interior and exterior furnishings in modern styles." (from DIY at CHM). Easi-Bild really nailed (pun intended) the market, with their projects that could be completed by unskilled woodworkers - which the majority of the returning soldiers were! The garage workshops were the forerunners of the man cave. Many of the men married quickly, and then realized that the garage was the only jplace they could escape and do man stuff (drink beer by themselves while listening to ball games on the radio) without interruptions! The patterns are so much fun, and can be created by anyone - you certainly don't have to be a man, anymore, to enjoy these easy woodworking projects! JONESANTIQUES!
