After two decades as a successful real estate broker in Northern California, where I co-owned a boutique firm in Auburn, my husband and I decided it was time to embrace a new adventure. We packed up and moved to the charming town of Bristol, Tennessee, where we've been basking in Southern hospitality since 2023—and loving every minute of it!

My love affair with woodworking began way back in high school when I fell head over heels for woodshop class. This passion led me to dive into building and renovating my own homes. Before leaving California, a dear friend and master carpenter introduced me to the magical world of wine barrel furniture. He kindly offered to teach me his craft, knowing I’d be heading to Tennessee and wouldn’t be stepping on his toes!

Now, my workshop is brimming with the fun and unique creations made from repurposed wine barrels. From funky tables to useful accessories, I’m delighted to craft one-of-a-kind pieces that bring a touch of rustic charm and a hint of wine country to the homes of others. It’s a joy to create something special that not only adds character to your space but also carries a unique vintage in every piece!

Crafted from a single wine barrel, each Adirondack-style chair is designed with precision and comfort in mind. Using the natural curves of the barrel, the chair ensures a superior fit and feel. With 5-6 staves forming the backrest, the exact number varies depending on the barrel used, but all chairs provide excellent support.

Each barrel is unique, meaning every piece created—whether a chair, table, bench, or art piece—is truly one of a kind. I endeavor to allow the life of the barrel to shine through. You may notice the rich staining from the red wine, rust marks from the barrel hoops, or even nail holes, all of which add to the authentic beauty and character of wine barrel art.

The chair is fastened with high-quality screws, and matching wood plugs from barrel scraps are used to cover every screw hole, giving a seamless, finished appearance. Additionally, the arm height can be customized to your preference, whether you plan to add a seat cushion or enjoy the chair as-is—remarkably comfortable without one!

Bring rustic charm and comfort to your outdoor space with our handcrafted wine barrel chairs, each telling its own unique story.
