🌿Custom work, NFS 🌿
Few jobs are more simultaneously exhilarating and nerve wracking than being trusted to refinish a family heirloom or a piece with some serious sentimental value.
There is trust that it won’t be cosmetically changed beyond all recognition, trust that its imperfections will be embraced rather than erased, and trust that it won’t be damaged in any way or destroyed completely.

This is my best friend’s childhood rocking chair, entrusted to me to be modernized for her young granddaughter to enjoy. Taking it apart to refinish each section separately was a risk because vintage pieces are notoriously finicky about being dismantled and reassembled. It was a risk that was rewarded - I got lucky - this one played nicely with me. 😮‍💨
The little dings, worn edges and charming character that this chair earned in its history of a life well lived with her were painstakingly saved. New ones will be added over time, overlapping stories of happy memories, with lots of love woven into its wood fibres.

Kristine, it was my absolute pleasure and honour to do this for you…thank you for trusting me.
Emma is one very lucky little girl to have you in her life. 💖

These are Canadian made, vintage Roxton maple end tables.
Roxton was a high quality furniture manufacturer that operated from 1890 to 2006, using only sustainably sourced Canadian maple and other species for their solid wood pieces. Their maple pieces were so well made and distinctive in their designs that they became, and are still known today as, “Roxton Maple” furniture.
These tables are solid wood from top to bottom, with a second shelf and drawer on each for lots of open and closed storage. Their warm, neutral colour and complimentary light wood tones will fit easily into your existing home decor.
These tables can be put to use in your living room or den, in any bedroom as matching bedside tables, or split them up into separate guest rooms for a consistent, cohesive vibe in each.
No matter which room in your home or cottage they end up in, they’re going to be beautiful and durable for years to come…and a bit of Canadian history will live there too.
