Custom kitchen cabinets - uniquely designed and crafted to meet the specific needs of each client. These cabinets were installed in a home in Dieppe, NB. Upper cabinets and range hood are made of maple hardwood and are painted BM - OC 19 Seapearl. The lower cabinets, island and desk/pantry are made of butternut wood and are finished in Early American stain.

This beautiful box went to California in September. I received the following email today from the customer.

Yvon, Carl is on his way to Las Vegas to celebrate his 30th with some friends. Before he left, he opened his gifts. What can I say? The beauty of your craftsmanship took our breath away. I have never seen a piece of woodwork or a box so beautifully finished. I loved everything about it. It is magnificent! Thank you for the interior plague with his name and the date of his 30th!

I believe that this will be a treasure of a lifetime for my son. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Janice

This beautiful walnut and figured maple box arrived in Texas today. It was commissioned by Georgetown Manor Ethan Allen furniture store in Houston. They are celebrating their 50th anniversary in business. Proud to have one of my boxes as a small part of their celebration.

Do you have an aged piece of furniture that you would like to breathe new life into? Perhaps a bedroom set that you have had for years that would be totally refreshed with a professionally applied coat of paint. Convert that queen head/footboard into a king and avoid the need to replace your entire set. Consider the refinishing option and be totally amazed at the results. Contact me for a quote at 380-0474.

This beautiful walnut and figured maple box was made for a client who wanted a family crest to reveal at a family gathering. Unique collaboration on this one as the client wanted to participate by doing his own finish. He did a great job. He reports that the box “stole the show.”

Refurbished this beautiful vintage chair into a rocking chair for a client. Stripped, sanded, stained, reinforced and added rockers. Absolutely love this chair.
