Customer Project: Long Board Table

The customer who came up with this creative project had a long galley style eating area in their 50’s Ranchette that he wanted to put a table suitable for large family gatherings.  

He needed a unique piece to fit into my eclectic collection of mid-century modern furniture, and a classic California Long-board came to mind.  

Original boards are priced in the thousands, so he made this custom stick for the price of a bottle of tanning butter!

Customer Project: 80’s Bathroom Remodel by Mighty House Construction

“Built in 1980, the guest/kid bathroom was dark and dreary with crummy and crumbling finish materials. Our goal was to create an space as light and airy as possible (without actual windows) and give it a fun, yet sophisticated look. Using salvage was an essential component for us — as much from budget standpoint as reducing consumption of new materials… given our skill set, we just didn’t feel good about bringing new finish materials into the space.”

Tulip Glass Wall Divider

I built this wall divider in order to provide separation between the living room and kitchen in a bank-owned home I bought and remodeled.  I have included a ‘before’ photo of how it looked when I bought it.  There was no separation at all between the living room, which also had a dining area, and then ran right into the kitchen.
