Before opening Daisy Baby, I had no idea one could custom make furniture. I thought you walked into a store. It came in that color, so that is how you had to buy it. I loved when some of my favorite clients and friends, Eileen & Annie taught me a thing or two about making furniture your own.
Tonight as I watch the opening ceremonies of the winter Olympics and put together the the new Art for Kids Binder, I am awed by the beauty of their pieces. It is amazing. The idea that you can take a simple bookcase or Armoire and totally create a unique piece the way you want it. How cool. You decide not only the color, but the finish, the trim, the background color. In these days of Ikea & pottery barn we forget people actually still make furniture in America, by hand. Really they do!
I am so proud to sell furniture like this. If you like the idea of handmade custom furniture. Check out Newport Cottages and Bradshaw Kirchofer. All from my home stare of California
