Vinyl 'n Blocks

 We've been having some fun with blocks, paint and vinyl!  These cute pieces can liven up any size of space.  Don't forget that we can customize size, color and even sayings to fit your decor.
It's never too early to think about the next season.
These would be a great wedding, graduation or any occasion gift.
Have a specific color scheme?  We can match it!

3 More Designs!

We got 3 more shelf designs to this stage. The only problem is finishing them. I am a black, brown, red, golden oak fan but I wonder if you are too. What color(s) should we finish these up with? I have about any color of paint and any shade of stain you could imagine. Let me know what you think!
36" Richmond
Very useful with the metal hooks but classy with the decorative trim.
36" Atlanta
Vinyl tiles and holders also available
36" Madison

Shelf Names

With so many shelf designs (and more to come!) we decided they needed names in order to keep them all straight. Which one is your favorite?

The Santa Fe (48")

The Jackson (36")

The Hartford (36") unfinished

The Topeka (36")

The Albany (48")

Another Santa Fe (36") with 3 drawers and antiqued

The Bismark

The Helena

The Santa Fe (48") with 4 drawer fronts

These are just a few examples of what we have done. They, of course, can be customized to fit your decor and taste. Many have drawers that work or just the drawer fronts. I am really excited about the Phoenix, Richmond, and the Lansing that are in the works right now.

Horse Puzzle

We came across this pattern in a scroll saw magazine and had to try it. It was fun to do and our kids have enjoyed playing with it too. They stand at almost 8" tall. We used oak for one and pine for another. I think the oak one will look great stained and am debating about painting the other. What do you think?

$18 Painted
