A Few of My Favorite Things 

With our annual Wood Sale happening at the shop right now, there are lots of beautiful wood pieces looking to find their forever homes. One of my favorites, upstairs is a bamboo bed that exudes softness and romance with its customized light blue finish chosen by our Nell Hill’s design team, providing both a soothing ambiance and delightful texture. Next, I pass by a custom dresser featuring Greek key drawer fronts, a warm neutral wood finish, and antique bronze drawer pulls. This piece combines timeless elegance with a touch of sophistication. Downstairs I found an etagere, designed to exude a more formal aesthetic, boasting glass shelves and brass finishings, complemented by an acrylic bar handle. Lastly, a desk steals the spotlight with its exquisite chippendale side panel, accentuated by acrylic pulls with brass accents, creating a fusion of natural beauty and modern allure. 

Why Customize 

There are countless reasons why customizing your own piece of wood furniture can be an incredibly rewarding and worthwhile endeavor. First and foremost, customization allows you to infuse your unique personality and style into your home decor. By selecting the wood finishes and details that resonate with you, you can create a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your individual taste and preferences. Customization also grants you the opportunity to address specific functional needs, ensuring that your furniture is tailored to your lifestyle. Whether it’s adding extra drawers, modifying dimensions, or incorporating special features, you have the freedom to design a piece that perfectly suits your requirements.
