Base Ten blocks are a mathematical manipulative used to teach basic mathematical concepts like place value, addition, subtraction, number sense, and counting. Kids can manipulate the blocks in different ways to express numbers and patterns. Physically manipulating objects is an important technique used in learning basic mathematic principles, particularly at the early stages of cognitive development. The 3-dimensional base ten manipulatives come in four sizes to indicate their individual place value: Units (one's place), Rods (ten's place), Flats (hundred's place) and Cubes (thousand's place). Each Unit measures 1 cm (L) x 1 cm (H) x 1 cm (W), each Rod 10 cm (L) x 1 cm (H) x 1 cm (W), each Flat 10 cm (L) x 10 cm (H) x 1 cm (W), and each cube 10 cm (L) x 10 cm (H) x 10 cm (W). Handcrafted from pine, oak or poplar wood, our base ten set is color-coded to help students quickly differentiate place value by comparing and contrasting each block. This set consists of 121 pieces which includes: 100 - yellow unit cubes 10 - green ten rods 10 - blue hundred flats 1 - red thousand cube *Colors of components may vary. This set comes in a keepsake handcrafted wood box with lid (10.75 inches L x 5.25 inches W x 4.75 inches H), labeled with the Lumberluxe logo to house your set for years to come.

Handcrafted from Start to Finish
It's weird how I got started in this hobby turned business, but one day I found myself perusing the Internet in search of a deep seated outdoor bench for our family gatherings. My style is a mix of Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware and West Elm but my budget is more beer than top shelf tequila!
Well that's when I got the wild idea to build the bench myself, so I quickly sketched out a rough drawing and started building. It took me a few days to complete but the end result was AMAZING! I surprised myself and from then on I wanted to learn more. I enrolled in some classes at the local Woodcraft store to enhance my skills. I've grown so much since my first build 6 years ago and with each new project I try to challenge myself to go the extra mile.
My goal at Lumberluxe is to create quality, long-lasting furniture that looks like it cost you thousands but actually is only a fraction of the cost.

For Oversized Coffee TableKristol was so easy to work with and was so quick to respond to my hundreds of questions and concerns. I took a leap of faith since this was our first piece of custom furniture and my husband and I were so delighted with the end product. I would definitely recommend Lumberluxe!
