Posted 12/23/17

Posted below are photos of what I am planning on bringing to the next alameda show, Sunday jan. 7. Lots of industrial, plus I am building cabinets again, will post more photos after Xmas as Cabinets get built. Great to be up and running again in my new location in Sonoma county. Was a rough 2017, what with closing up Oakland warehouse and moving up to Sonoma then having to experience the fires that devastated so many of my neighbors! I remain grateful for so much, life is good! Peace to all!

Hello from Sonoma county!

Just a note to update all. The last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy up here in Sonoma county. Leaving my house in the middle of the night with several fires eerily glowing on the horizon was not an experience I want to repeat. Within 24 hrs thousands of my neighbors had lost their homes and the awfulness continued for over a week and a half. The house I rent was on a property that the fire threatened later on in the following week but fortunately by that time there were thousands of firefighters up here and they were able to save our area. The job done by all first responders was amazing much gratitude to all!
        I AM STILL PLANNING ON ATTENDING ALAMEDA ANTIQUE FAIRE ON SUNDAY, NOV. 5, BOOTHS N-15,16. WEATHER PERMITTING of course. I have been buying some great industrial pieces over the last couple months and purchased an entire inventory of vintage items so will be well stocked with fresh pickings. I am making great progress on barn to shop conversion so should be up and running for custom pieces within the next 30 days. I WILL POST PHOTOS HERE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS AS I GET  READY FOR ALAMEDA.

😎 I'M BACK 😎

Greetings everybody! It's been a while since I've posted, so much has happened. I am finally out of the warehouse in Oakland. Much thanks to everybody who came to my sales and purchased items.  Liquidating 9000 ft.² of random objects, wood, etc., quite a project! So very grateful that that chapter of my life has been completed. I am now located in rural Sonoma County,  outside of Santa Rosa near Kenwood. My neighbors are horses and llamas.  Life is good!  I am in the process of converting a barn into a shop.  I expect to be up and running by the end of September. In the meantime, I hope everybody has a great summer, and I look forward to reacquainting myself with people at Alameda. My ALAMEDA ANTIQUE FAIRE schedule for the rest of the year- I am planning to attend AUG,NOV,DEC.  Sunday August  6 is the  coming soon, I hope to see you all there. I will have lots of fresh inventory,  smalls, industrial, etc. I still have quite a few leaded glass windows from my warehouse inventory, along with remaining stock of architectural items. I will post a few pictures below, stuff that I've built this past year that never got posted.
