Reclaimed Wood Desk And Shelves–Construction & Installation
This project was to build a desk and shelves for a small bedroom nook using reclaimed lumber. They both needed to be floating without any visible supports. Both the desk and the shelves were constructed and finished before installation. Once the support pieces were installed, the shelves were slid in place over them. The shelves and desk front were stained dark to match other wood throughout the room. The desktop was left natural to show off the grain and to provide a contrast of old and new.

About Me
Twenty-five years ago we instantly fell in love with a 100-year-old farmhouse. We reveled in its unique architecture, old world craftsmanship and a chance to preserve history. All through the years since then it became the ultimate outlet to perfect both my artistic and carpentry skills.
About My Business
My disdain for mass-produced furnishings lead me to the creation of many unique custom-made pieces. By combining a passion for historical materials with modern design, I was able to preserve a bit of the past into the future. Old barn wood was transformed into tables, bathroom fixtures, kitchen cabinets and anything else I could apply my artistry to. Broken Mexican tile was fashioned into beautiful mosaic inlays. Collected stones, shells and driftwood were melded with old growth wood to recreate natural beauty.

Jun 20, 2022Abodeacious did a GREAT job with my desk. It was a custom build. He finished a week or two ahead of schedule. Communicated status along the way and turned out great. Would recommend.

Dec 9, 2021Ron was wonderful to work with. He was engaged and communicative every step of the way. There were a couple of things that caused the work to take a bit longer, but he was on top of checking in with me and it was absolutely worth the wait. I am so happy with how the shelves turned out and it really brought my vision for the space to life. He took a lot of time packing up the shelves so that they would be safe during shipping and even sent the instructions along with the mounts, screws and drill bits needed for installation. Ron's care and expertise is clearly visible in the quality of his craftsmanship.
