6-Seat Shaker Style Dining Table

Julie in California called today to rave about her new 6-Seat Pine Dining Table. She told me: " It's perfect. I love it more each day. I'm head over heals in love with it. In fact, when my daughter saw it she asked if she can have when I die!" Tee hee hee... at Shaka Studios we pride ourselves on making heirloom quality furniture but we hope our clients get to use theirs for many, many years before their progeny get to enjoy it!

The Ultimate Luxury Gift: Tiger Maple Bed

Can you imagine waking up every morning in your very own handmade tiger maple pencil post bed? I bet you can! Especially after I tell you that we have the lumber available to make one just for you in time for Christmas (when you order before November 10th). What if I told you that if you ordered by October 31st, you could have the bed of your dreams for 10% off? Pretty exciting, huh?Tiger Maple Pencil Post BedTiger Maple Pencil Post Bed Tiger Maple Pencil Post Bed Tiger Maple Pencil Post Bed Tiger Maple Pencil Post Bed Here's the catch: we can only make one of these beautiful beds before Christmas.

Dovetail Drawer Detail

How do you like that alliteration in the title? Dovetail Drawer Detail... DDD!! Love it! I seriously did not intend for that to happen. Tee hee hee.

During my quest to continually update our website, I found this FABULOUS photo, taken in July of 2007, of a Henegar Huntboard drawer in shabby chic white on java finish: Not only can you see the dovetail detail, but other treatments, like the chamfer of the table top and the shape of the knob, are also evident. I just love when I find a real gem of a photo like this one.

Light the Night Update

Last weekend, the kiddo and I went to visit Amber at Texas Childrens. We ended up staying for 5 hours! The girls played with the hospital's Wii Fit for a couple of hours and found lots of other things to do in Amber's small room. It was nearly impossible to get mine to leave!

Amber has lost much of her hair and opted to shave the rest off. She looks very cute in hats! She is in good spirits and her first round of chemo is over but her immunity is at zero and the hospital will not let her go home. Here's a photo of the girls:

The Light the Night walk is less than a month away and our team is at roughly 18% of our fundraising goal. There are now 22 of us walking in Amber's honor! If you'd like to pledge your financial support, visit our BamberRocks fundraising page and click on the "donate to team" button.
