The owner of 💐 Bloom & Branch, Emily, is just as bright and down to earth as the beautiful flowers that she grows and sells. When she asked if I could build her a foldable Bouquet Bar in time for her pop up later in the week, I hit the ground running. I know all my customers can’t be fellow small business owners trying to bring some light into this world but I’m sure blessed when they are! I can’t wait to see Bloom And Branch continue to blossom!

Yesterday my good friend and client Ben from Tiger Sounds HiFi picked up his last 6 (of 9 total) custom record cabinets. This was by far my biggest and most challenging commission to date. Ben has been dreaming of opening up his own record store since he was 14! He’s such an inspiration to me, hearing and seeing the gumption he’s putting forth to make his dream come true. I’m feeling quite blessed for such great opportunity to work with another small (but mighty) local business. Please join me in celebrating, but more importantly supporting Tiger Sounds HiFi . This is not your regular dusty ol resell shop. Ben takes the time to clean each individual record before sale and on top of that, is offering the HiFi equipment to bring that quality analog sound to life. PS after the pretty pictures is a little glimpse of how they came to life.
