Why did the door go to the therapist?
…Because it had a problem opening up 😂

I’ll tell you one thing, opening up won’t be a problem with these massive 18’ x 10’ frosted sliding and stacking doors. Happy to partner with The Carriage Barn to bring their vision to life in this beautiful new venue. Be sure to check them out for all your micro wedding and event needs 🥂

Here’s a closer look at the display book designed for Cass District Library’s Edwardsburg Branch. I wanted to use native woods and settled on black walnut and white oak. The grain pattern gave me the idea to cut it in a way that resembles words on a page. I’ve always loved the tones of cedar and thought maybe I could use it somehow to make a bookmark. I ended up steam bending and shaping a strip to mimic a ribbon. I was planning on only making the book but thought it needed something to make it stand out more and just kind of winged it from there. Overall, it was a rewarding project and very cool that it gets to live in such a beautiful space.

My son and I had the pleasure of attending the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Edwardsburg Branch of Cass District Library today. What an incredible space! Wyatt has officially dubbed it “the coolest library ever” which is HIGH praise coming from a bookworm like him. I love unique projects and it was an honor to create this display piece for the library.
