Just in time for Halloween! Another great walnut fireplace mantel highlighting great grain patterns. I always enjoy the change from raw to complete! #walnut #walnutmantel #blackwalnut #fireplace #mantel #mantle #fireplacemantel #fireplacedesign #fireplacedecor #manteldecor #mantledecor #minnesota #mantlepeice #modernrustic
This incredible walnut fireplace mantel showcases striking grain patterns, beautifully contrasting against a contemporary slate gray backdrop. Quite the transformation from raw material to a final creation. #walnut #walnutmantel #blackwalnut #fireplace #mantel #mantle #fireplacemantel #fireplacedesign #fireplacedecor #manteldecor #mantledecor #minnesota #mantlepeice #modernrustic
Incredible solid reclaimed white oak coffee table. True mortise and tenon joinery with dovetail corners on top. 1800s vintage hand-hewn legs. We cheated a bit and used 2-by material rather than beams for the top, but the table would have weighed about 500lbs. Instead, we came in right about 250lbs. Pictures show a bit of the behind-the-scenes work. #coffeetable #customtable #reclaimedwoodtable #bespoketables #oaktable #diningtable #reclaimedwood #reclaimedwoodfurniture #customfurniture #reclaimedwood #reuse #barnwood #minnesota #interiordesign

Look at both of these pictures. Quite the transformation. I think many folks would have dismissed this old beam as a piece of junk. Fun to see the change.

Solid white oak table and benches made with reclaimed floor joist material. Even though some might call this a country table, it fits perfectly well into this delightful mid-century modern home. There is always something to be said for the authenticity of hand-crafted work. #farmtable #customtable #reclaimedwoodtable #bespoketables #reclaimedfarmtable #trestletable #oaktable #diningtable #reclaimedwood #reclaimedwoodfurniture #customfurniture #reclaimedwood #reuse #barnwood #minnesota #interiordesign
What a beautiful unicorn black walnut mantel! I almost hate to show this one because the great woodgrains in the walnut will be tough to replicate. We were very lucky on this one. Nature certainly has a way with things.

What a beautiful outdoor mantel setting! Gotta love the blue sky and greenery along with our hand-hewn white oak mantel. It has a cut top to make it rectangular. I can imagine many relaxing days with a cool breeze out there.

Phenomenal execution on a natural white oak mantel with 1800s vintage hand-hewn marks. Accented by streaked white oak boards and an impressive elk rack mount. Wow!
Neat white oak streaked mantel from an old barn sill timber. These things looks extremely rough when we start but they go through a Cinderella transformation. It`s always fun to watch.

This is what looking for the perfect mantel piece means. This once rotten sill timber was cleaned up to showcase great grains and character. All set on modern steel with hand-hammered iron accents.

Kind of a crazy transformation. The incredible grain patterns on this red elm mantel were hidden behind sapwood and lots of messy fuzz in this old barn beam.

From dusty old thing to beatiful mantel. This simple pine mantel had a pretty impressive transformation from this dirty, cobwebby, filthy barn thing to what sits in house today.

Modern, solid white oak fireplace mantel. We stumbled upon an usual batch. These beams had been in a heated shouse (shed/house) for almost 25 years. Fully dry. Funny how a bit of cracking can add that authentic touch to a piece. #fireplace #mantel #mantle #fireplacemantel #fireplacedesign #fireplacedecor #manteldecor #mantledecor #minnesota #woodandmetal #blacksmith #mantlepeice #whiteoak #modernmantel

It is always a treat to explore barns looking for material. While we would love to see all the barns saved, sadly, it is often just not financially practical for buildings that don’t suit modern needs. #barnwood #reclaimedwood #handhewn #mantels #firepalce #rusticdecor #farm #barn #abandonedplaces #abandoned
