 Let's
all give ourselves a hand for making it through this past
winter. Yes, we are Canadian but that was a true test of
patriotism. Thank goodness for a fireplace, good books and of
course hockey!
While
it was snowing and then snowing some more this winter, we were very
busy in our workshop making many new products. We had lots
of furniture to make not only for customers and our shop but also for
the London Lifestyle Home Show and two new retailers that are carrying
our furniture. Besides production, we decided to have our
website redesigned, get more involved in Social Media and find more
great Canadian products to carry in our shop. Sounds
like it was all work and no play at our house but not true. Even
though we didn't head south, we did take time to still enjoy some snow
days! And now that Spring is here, we intend to enjoy some
sunny days outside with Otis. Wishing everyone a happy spring. Sue & Dean |

Every Piece Has Its Story
Custom Product Feature
Cabinet
Here's
a piece that we created using a salvaged screen door as the decorative
front of a cabinet. Definitely one-of-a-kind.
Wood Benches Benches,
benches and more benches. These thick slabs of pine salvaged from older
homes floor and wall boards make great foyer benches and even extra
seating at the table.
