From my workshop, to your event.

Hello, I'm Shawn — a passionate designer and craftsman dedicated to creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces that elevate your most meaningful moments.

​

My journey began on my grandfather’s dairy farm in Carlinville, IL, where I learned the value of hard work and perseverance. Later, serving in the U.S. Marine Corps further instilled in me a deep commitment to excellence and attention to detail. Over the years, I’ve become a lifelong learner, refining a wide array of industrial and creative skills. Growing up surrounded by talented craftsmen in various trades, I discovered early on that creativity isn’t just a passion — it’s a powerful way to overcome challenges and bring ideas to life.

​

After designing and building hundreds of unique pieces, I’ve developed a true appreciation for the artistic process — from the initial spark of inspiration to selecting raw materials and watching a vision come to life. My work is deeply influenced by the textures and tones of the natural world: the character of timeworn barn wood, the elegance of rusted iron, the tranquility of rolling hills, and the serenity of a clear blue sky.

​

This appreciation of nature is the inspiration of my rustic farmhouse table and bench designs. Each piece is thoughtfully crafted to bring warmth, authenticity, and timeless beauty to your event. Whether you're planning a wedding, an intimate gathering, or a grand celebration, I hope my creations help make your day as memorable and inspiring as the natural world that inspires me.
