Shop + Tell: Me







Who:
Hi guys, it's me!
How often do you indie-shop?
Currently 2x or so a month.
Scores... a custom 10' English Tavern Dining Table from Lorimer Workshop (David Ellison)
How does it make you feel?

Happy, happy, happy, happy, happy

What made you buy it?
We moved into our first house two months ago and I've always dreamed of having a massive dining table where the whole family can hang out (for now it's just me and Hillsy) and memories can be made.

Plus, there was something romantic about a handcrafted table made out of salvaged wood from an old New England railway yard built in 1913. David was genuinely a treat to work with, he walks you through the entire process, sends you photos every step of the way and hand delivers the table all the way from Rhode Island! His work is amazing and you can tell how much he enjoys what he does.

Thanks again David, we love it!
