Happy Memorial Day!!

Projects....Remember a short time back my friend Donna ordered a Narrow Bench for her Americana Room.  Well here it is.  She sanded, painted and waxed...Now it is Perfect to Perch at the Foot of Her Guest Bed in her "Americana Room".  She is still working diligently to pull the room together before all the guests arrive in mid June,  I will post a photo of the finished room.   Go and visit her site, she has Fabulous Signs  http://tinglelaneprimitives.blogspot.com/
 Here is the Bench we built for Luca...She decided to use it as a Coffee Table!!  Thanks Luca!!

 A Front View!!  We Love to see what all our Customers do with the things we build for them!!  

This is the latest Project for Luca.  A desk just for her!  Of course it needed to be black and she loves old things.  So I tried to do my best to make it look as if it had been around for longer than a day.  The Rough Cut Wood is wonderful.  I sanded and Painted Black with just a touch of Distress for the Perfect finish.  It measures 48 inches long, 20 inches in width and 30 inches in Height.

A View of the Top....
The Tapered Leg.....I hope she loves it!!!!

James ordered some Vintage Window Planter Boxes from us several weeks ago in a Pale Blue.  He has a Red Brick House and wanted them to Pop...

Here they are mounted on his house.  He grow herbs in them.  Wonderful idea...Thanks James for the Photos.


Another Customer Project this week is for Tabitha.  She wanted a Primitive Table to use for her Lap Top.

Walnut Stained Tapered Legs, Vanilla Distress Top.

This one Measures 42 inches in length, 24 inches in Width and 30 inches Tall.

Nice color with wood grain!!  Great Contrast with the legs!  Thanks Tabitha...let us see how you use it!!


The last Project this week is for Lou Anne...This is Thomas' Favorite and he did an outstanding job!!!

A 2 Tiered Primitive Table...Heavy with a Shelf for display on the bottom....I sanded and waxed!!  Beautiful Oak!!
Look at the Natural Worm Holes and Notice the Large Square Nails he used
Beautiful Wood...Wonderful Table for her Entry Way.
A side view that does not do it justice. Lou Anne has Antique Farm Implements and Vintage Tools.  This will fit in nicely.
This is it waiting for Pick up after the Rain is over....

Measures 45 inches Long, 14 inches in Depth and 33 inches in Height with bottom shelf 6 inches off the Floor.

This is a Peek into our Storage Unit...Told you we have Stuff.  See anything you Need???


Does this give you an idea....Call me, Text me Or Send Me an Email!!!

Remember to say Thanks to All the Men and Women of the Armed Forces and God Bless those and the Families that Lost their Lives for Our Freedom!

Stay Safe....Stay in Touch!
