We just finished a quick restock and dropped off some new items at Independence Market! Stop by and check out the new varieties of kitchen tongs, along with our trinket/snack dishes and our brand new grilling planks! We also have some new soap dishes in white oak, walnut, mahogany and sapele!

The new kitchen tongs now come in walnut and maple, maple and walnut and white oak and walnut!

Our trinket dishes are great as a catch all for your keys or jewelry but are also food safe and great for snacks and candies!

Lastly we are super excited to put out our new grill planks! Stop by and try them out they come in a two pack in either red cedar, maple, cherry or oak and are a great way to spice up your dinner now that it is grill season!

We have been busy in the shop lately!

Last week we had one of our customers pick up their table and bench we built for them. The table was built out of reclaimed timber’s from a house that had been in their family for generations.

We were honored when chatting with our customers and through out the process. It is always an honor making family heirlooms that will last a lifetime!

The pictures are through out the process from timbers to treasures. If you have a project in mind we would love to work together to make them a reality!
