Here's where you come to follow the progress of your piece of furniture in the shop. No, wood doesn't talk--or does it? Sure it does! As we work on your piece we learn things about where it's been, how it's been used, maybe even who (or what) has used it, and often about where it came from originally. It's a lot of fun and typically quite interesting.

This space also gives us a chance to let you know about any special experiences or progress related challenges. We try to chronicle work completed on your furniture whenever anything significant occurs. So there may not be an entry every day, but when we document them, we hope you will find these journal entries are fun, informative, purposeful, and creative.

So, have fun "listening" to our dialogue with your piece, as it is, it's Wood Talkin.

A Front Door

Everybody coming to the house sees it up close and personal. So we all tend to take them for granted. This one is no exception. It's on a home built in the 1980s and as design would dictate, it's on the home's southern face under a small covered stoop. So it's taken an environmental beating. Hot sun, dry and ultraviolet extremes with little reprieve day after day....taken for granted.

So......what's a faithful and dependable door to do? Well this handsome maple sentry is getting a long deserved face lift. Boy is it happy, and he's telling us as much and enjoying every minute of this pampering.

This handsome guy, with leaded-in glass lights, trimmed panels and moulding surrounds has every reason to be confident. He's had his down season, but it will soon be history. He'll be able to strut his stuff across the neighborhood! We'll offer an update in a forthcoming blog.

So, here is to listening, because of course Wood is Talkin.
