I agree with David, at least take a Sharpie and date & initial them. 

I had a lady to call me this past Saturday about a clock that I had built.  She was wanting to know it's possible value so that she could sell it.  She said that it had a number 3-5-85, which I know was the date of mfg.  She also said that it was Oak, but I know that it is Pecan.  I am hoping that I can buy it.  ;D

Maybe you can buy it back and come full circle.

Very nice Danny!!!   I use my stamp and the dated penny for indicating the year made.  I love seeing your furniture!

As a father of 3 daughters I understand. My oldest is currently a walnut snob. She draws the picture and tells me to build.  She insists on being the one to grain match and absolutely can't have any sap wood in her pieces. :D  A true walnut snob.   I've had to rebuild end tables because of her acquired walnut taste.

Nice work WDH, but I noticed a few of the pieces have a strange wavy reflectance. It's almost impossible to remove such defects with tools or sandpaper, so being the true friend I am, I'll just come and pick up all your remaining "defect walnut". Your welcome.

I'm so MAD I can't stand it!    :'(

I could have been born one of the Hamsley children and got furniture......
but NO!!!!!......I was born a Goat and got fleas! 
The older I get I wish my body could Re-Gen.

I can imagine out a 100 years, or so, the hands touching that handmade furniture; a momma will spark up, "Your great great great, grand daddy built that". 

That's what you built after all, a legacy item that many grand children will love. 8) 8)
Life is short, tragedy is instant, it's what we do with our time in between that matters.  Always strive to do better, to be better.

The last pic is with the finish applied.  3 coats of satin polyurethane.

I missed that earlier.
The way that you made both top drawer fronts from the same board shows excellent craftsmanship!
