Rustic Furniture
Since 2001 we have designed and built rustic furniture. With our roots are in log style, rustic furniture but have evolved to building using live edge wood and wood slabs. We strive to handcraft one of a kind functional but artistic custom wood furniture. As I said we started out building rustic log furniture using eastern red cedar. Kelly harvested all the log from trees that have lived their life. The early style was simple log beds, tables, and vanities were the main early pieces. But today our artist design rustic style wood furniture that highlights the natural wood grain pattern in the wood slabs we use. Whether it is a rare big leaf maple burl, redwood burl or claro walnut wood slabs the options are limitless as custom rustic furniture.
Live edge Furniture
We specialize in rustic furniture that features material sourced from nature. This style incorporates stick, logs, and other materials found in nature for a natural look. But it is the live edge furniture makers craft a variety of natural wood furniture within the rustic theme. This rustic style live edge furniture allows for nature to become a part of your home decor. One of the top questions we get are does the wood dictate the design or does the design determine the wood. The truth is it can be both depending on the project. The main thing is we want to stay true to the wood by highlighting its natural beauty. Whether it is a rustic table or custom rustic bathroom vanity we desire to showcase the wood. We try to source our material from dead standing trees or logs and root systems left on the forest floor. We are not tree huggers but we desire to be environmentally responsible in building our rustic furniture.
