What do you love about going home? Is it that comfortable feeling of familiarity? Home is a place where you can unwind, be you, be NATURAL. Home is where so many stories unfold, where we destress and let our raw emotions show, whether they be happy, sad, or somewhere in between.
Reclaimed barnwood is much like us. Like the smile lines in our face, or worry creases in our foreheads; the cracks and nooks and crannies in the wood show the life it has lived. It has seen sunny days and rainy days. Its character can be warm and inviting, relaxed and gently distressed, or sometimes raw and weathered showing its long journey. Whatever the story, the outcome is the same. Our wood has been weathered to a desirable, rustic perfection that could only develop over the course of time.
Carefully crafted into kitchen masterpieces, our barnwood cabinets are an addition to your home that will never go unnoticed or under appreciated. Our cabinets will add a tranquil charm to your home and continue to grow in character as they will someday also tell YOUR story.
Built with Pride
Our cabinets are built within our own cabinet shop out in the "sticks" of Susquehanna, Pa. Almost twenty years ago, we found our love for barnwood and decided to embark on this journey. Starting out with the desire to salvage the antique wood from old barns to quickly developing an artistic eye applied with our master craftsman skills building our one of a kind, custom kitchen cabinets.
Our knowledge has grown immensely throughout our years of experience in the barnwood business. We continually seek ways to apply our latest ideas to our products and always stay focused on producing cabinets with a long lasting quality, functionality, style and charm.
We Seal the Deal
We seal our cabinets with a conversion varnish that is baked on for easy cleaning and durability. This varnish also protects you from any splintery rough feeling on the wood without sacrificing the authentic rustic look. We find beauty in the imperfections. Old nail holes, and different colorations are part of what makes our product unique.
Cleaning and Care
Simply wipe your cabinets down with water and a sponge or use a mild detergent if necessary. Our baked on varnish will protect your cabinets from spills and cleaning agents.
