A Small Storage (For Gloves And Hats) Bench For An Entryway.

A Small Storage (For Gloves And Hats) Bench For An Entryway.

Here's the original request we received: I would LOVE something unique just for my small space. It can be beautifully and artistically hand painted or interesting combinations of different colored wood. It must be beautiful as well as functional: a place to sit and take off your shoes AND able to store gloves, scarves, and hats (NOT shoes). Here are some details on the project from the maker: I am attaching revised drawing I do not know how to delete two pictures of model I made so just ignore them since it does not have the bottom rail The storage bench is 32"-18" high-15" deep in cherry (top, legs, front carved panel, front bottom rail), quilted maple veneer(from Certainly wood Q.MAPLE 1002-16) on rest of bench except the inside the box which will be plain maple) Top lid with hinges with arm No panels on the sides and the back No rails on the back and the sides Clear satin finish CT tax and delivery included Thank you

My furniture is pieces of art starting from hand selecting of lumber for each piece of furniture, sticking to the traditional woodworking and hand rubbed on oil based finish that is water, heat and alcohol resistance as well as truely brings out the natural beauty of wood.

I have BFA in design from Rhode Island School of Design and MFA in Woodworking and Furniture Design from Rochester Institute of Technology.

Woodworking and furniture making is my passion. I have been making furniture for almost 30 years. I pay extra cares to each piece I design and build. You will love it!!

    I would 100% work with Katherine again. She responds very quickly, was very patient in working with me on a finalizing a design, and completed the project on schedule. I was incredibly impressed with her work!

    My cherry end table arrived yesterday, carefully packed to avoid any damage in shipment. My wife and I are thrilled with the table in every way possible! We've been taking turns sitting beside it, touching it all the time, I might add. Visually, its lines are very easy on the eye, and its proportions are perfect for the intended side-table use. Yes, I would DEFINITELY employ Katherine Park again; she's clearly a talented, artistic woodworker — also a good listener ;-)

    I’m new to custommade but not new to working with carpenters. My usual guys are more traditional and I wanted to do something with more of a modern edge – so I figured I’d test out custommade on a bedroom set that included a vanity, dresser and two nightstands. Katherine’s designs seemed great, and she had stellar reviews, but I was a little unsure of using someone I’ve never met or worked with before. Katherine explained her process, and I figured I’d give it a chance.

    I sent her my designs, and she revised them adding some amazing elements I would have never thought of. She was very clear on timeline and every detail during the process. She was always available whenever I had a question, and always had great ideas. The entire design/construction process almost seemed too easy – so wasn’t sure exactly what the furniture would look like.

    Everything got delivered yesterday, and the design and construction quality is way beyond what I expected. Every joint, seam, angle is perfectly sculpted. She lined up the wood grain between drawer faces. Katherine is less of a carpenter, and more of an artist.

    I don’t need any more work right now, but her furniture is so amazing, it makes me want to get back to work on something else just for fun.
