Old Town Cottonwood Farmers Market features local produce, assorted baked goods, local wares, and one perfectly minimalist furniture booth.
For the past five weeks I have set up my booth at the OTCWFM where the weather is perfect, the music is amazing and the people are engaging. The Industrial Craftsman Furniture booth consists of one slightly used cart showcasing the furniture du jour (whatever piece I was building that week).
This Black Acacia piece made a splash on the community…

Rhinebeck is an adorable hamlet on the Hudson river about an hour and a half north of the city, it features colonial and gothic architecture, cute, bustling shops and an amazing Pilates studio.
I had the privilege of building the front desk for said amazing studio, in this charmed hamlet. It started with locally sourced, spalted Maple that was beautifully figured and had dark lines of “spalting”. Then, I added some birch Plywood to match the existing furniture. The final step was creating a “charging station” where students could leave their cell phones, while escaping into the Pilates peace of mind.
