About this Product
A dark blue Lazy Susan that looks like a Sand Dollar? Yes it is. 18 Inches across. This is hand painted in more of a freeform style than my others, A Lazy Susan turntable. Classic coastal decor and functional art for the kitchen. This lazy Susan would be the perfect gift, especially for the beach lovers we know. How about a housewarming gift for the owners of a new beach house?
The first five photo's above represent this listing. The others are of different listings in my shop.
This one of a kind beach house art is hand made, from start to finish. It is a hand painted, real wood Lazy Susan. We cut each one out of Maple or Oak 3/4 inch plywood into the shape of a sand dollar. After cutting with the jig saw, we sand, route the edge and paint the painting. It is finished off with epoxy resin. The epoxy is what gives the Lazy Susan's the super shiny, durable, glass like, reflective finish. Most people think they are made of glass or ceramic.
I make Lazy Susan's in many different colors, and different artistic styles. The first five photo's are of this particular listing. The remaining photo's are pictures of other listings in my shop. Many of my designs come from customer requests. I would love to make something special just for you or your friends.
We were featured on the television show called Texas Country Reporter. Here's part of the video:
Thank you for visiting. I look forward to making something special for you soon!

Meet the Maker
Hi everyone, I am Janet Dineen, a handmade maker of Mosaic Art, Custom House numbers and Lazy Susans. Custom orders are my specialty. Feel free to ask about anything that you have in mind. Many times, the best ideas come from people like you.
I currently live in Aransas Pass, Texas where I am very lucky to have a home studio where I can work in the lovely air conditioning. My husband Mike and I work together on many of the projects, he cuts the wood and I paint.
We have a little dog named Dolly and her job is to keep us entertained and chase squirrels.
I welcome people into my home studio to visit or purchase something that I might have available. I hope to make something special for you soon. Cheers!
How it’s Made
This is how we make our Lazy Susans.
1. Purchase the Wood. 2. Cut the shape out with a jigsaw. 3. Sand the edges. 4. Route the edges and sand again. 5. Cut out the bottom piece from 1/2" wood and attach the made in USA ball bearing swivel that is very strong. 6. Sand bottom, route and drill the hole for attaching screws 7. Prime all pieces of wood. 8. Attach the two parts together, swivel in middle. 9. Attach, then paint the design 10. Coat with 2 coats of marine Urethane 11. Coat with two part epoxy resin. Blow bubbles out with torch. (See video in shop updates) 12. Put lid on, cross fingers and toes for good luck. 13. Hope it came out nice. and we don't need to coat it again. Are they perfect? Sometimes we get lucky. 14. After it dries, we remove the drips from the back, (I call them baubles) with a grinder. 15. The bottom paint is touched up. The piece is signed and dated and wrapped up in a pizza box for shipping.
