Painted Herbal Cabinet
I want to show off a friend of mine's artistic abilities. Chrissy Stanley is an outstanding artist and she has helped me create numerous projects that otherwise wouldn't have been nearly as beautiful had I not included her in the project.
Photos are of a re-purposed cabinet that was about to end up in a basement full of paint cans.
Snails may not be everyone's taste but personally it couldn't have come off better ....and truthfully how many snails have you seen slime gold leaf?

Charleston Forge designs
Here's another design I did for the folks at Charleston Forge.
Along with this introduction I help them reinvent the feel and texture of their wood tops by hand scraping and hand rubbing their finishes.
To me, it really brought together the feel of the iron and the wood into a total package.
Retreat Cocktail Table from Charleston Forge!
Hand wrought iron and a hand planed oak top with a hand applied and rubbed antique finish. Very nice!.
This is a very weighty piece that can hold its own in a big room. Retreat Cocktail Table

Our Designs at Charleston Forge
Here's a new design that I did for Charleston Forge. I think it turned out great. It has really different alligatored finish on the top that we developed at Charleston Forge.
Please buy one or recommend one to a friend because my wife wants to go on a trip!

A Very Proud Moment
This has to be one of the most proudest moments of my design career. When Orvis put the Woodie Camper on the front cover, then nice spread on the inside and a very well done video we couldn't believe it!
I have to thank Brett Ference at Orvis for believing us and for his modeling abilities which I bowed out of. The video is much more palatable with out me in it.

Moore & Giles Airstream Showroom
Here's a peak at a project Airstream we did for Moore & Giles leather company. We completely gutted and modified the interior and exterior for traveling showroom space for their incredibly beautiful bags for men and women. I practically live out of one. Check them out at http://www.mooreandgiles.com/
Its great thing to see something like this recycled and re-purposed then completely embraced by the design world. When it travels to shows like the Architectural Digest show in NY (last week)it is the most popular show booth inside pier 94. Its so strange to see a gleaming 31ft Airstream inside one of the world's most fashion forward places on earth.
