Happy Halloween! Here’s a photo of a giant candy corn bed my teacher and mentor Doug Sigler made. Doug is a master craftsman and professor emeritus from RIT, trained by Tage Frid in the early 60’s. I slept in the bed in his guest house when I visited Doug and his wife Kathie in in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina last month. It’s a queen size bed, so those candy corns are pretty huge. They are solid stack laminated basswood, 8″ thick and over 2 ft. wide. The title of the bed is “Trick or Treat”.
My teeth hurt just looking at that bed.
