Nice work, Ray, Ash is where it's at!
From the 'Ashes to ashes, dust to dust' files - some years ago, we were paged out for a 'Deer in the river' FD call. Why we were called is beyond me, but yes, there was a deer that had broken through the ice on the river. We don't save deer in rivers because, well, because they'll kick your butt with their hooves. A sheriff's deputy showed up and shot the deer in the head, killing it and causing it to sink below the ice and drift away. The deer-hugger that called us was apoplectic, but that's another story.
Point being, I turned to fellow FF Traci Mayhood, owner of Tree Image cabinetry, winner of 'Best Kitchen Cabinetry' three of the four years she'd entered our local
Parade of Homes annual custom home builders showcase competition. I dead-panned that it was a shame she couldn't build furniture, as I needed some. She responded that she could build anything I needed - so, off to my house we went.
With an idea in hand, and a pallet of Ash from a project that had recently fallen through, she built this custom bedroom ensemble. Fair priced and delivered in short order, it was built to my taste. I found a black oyster button whilst hiking and asked that she try to match it for the drawer pulls; she nailed it. It's a small room, so all the furniture was down-sized ~10% to fit. The drawer slides suck in and drop down once nudged in. Super happy with Traci's work. Ash...
