Each year is new and unique in its own way. Some years have brought more trials, while others, additional growth. Because of this, we thought writing a blog reviewing each year would be a fun way to reminisce and track what the years have brought us.
These next few days typically involve last minute preparation for the big Thanksgiving meal! Not to mention putting table leaves to work for their thrice yearly appearance.
From day one, our mantra has been to produce and deliver top-of-the-line tables and benches that will last. In fact, we put so much time and energy into these custom pieces that we have made a science out of the process.

This month is a big one for us because we are celebrating ten years in business! A whole decade has gone by of crafting custom-made furniture for families across the United States.
We’ll keep this short and sweet. As I’m sure you’ve likely gathered by now, we have deadlines for when orders need to be placed for furniture to arrive prior to the holidays.

For every home, the needs and desires vary. This is one of the many reasons why flexible seating is a problem solver. As we’ve said countless times before, it’s important to know what will work best for your home.
There are endless choices when it comes to tables, chairs, and table set designs. A space can be eclectic, modern, formal, transitional, so on and so forth.
Over the years the importance of being eco-friendly has greatly increased and for good reason. As a shop that uses natural products on a daily basis, we’ve taken many strides to ensure we do our part and be as resourceful and eco-friendly as possible
Every year, we strive to put out high-quality products while still keeping our customers’ needs and style first and foremost.
If we were to tell you that nearly two years ago our shop caught fire, was deemed uninhabitable, and that we just returned “home,” it may come as a surprise.
As we begin 2019, we cannot help but reflect on all that 2018 has brought us. While reminiscing, we were reminded of all the different projects we took on and the collaborations we made with our customers to achieve their dream pieces.
