One of a Kind Rustic Walnut Table for sale!




In July of 2011 we found a walnut stump that we knew would make a beautiful table base. After the stump was stripped of the bark this is what it looked like. We wanted to make a rustic table that would show the one of a kind beauty of the walnut wood.





It took over a year to air dry and prep the stump but it was worth the wait for this striking walnut table.  The 60" round top is also made from walnut wood, with an overall table height of 35 1/2". The stump and table top is hand stained with a provincial stain and finished with our conversion varnish. The table is available for $5999.00.

 The top shows the character of the walnut wood.



If you have any questions about this table please contact us at the store, 724-946-8034 or by e-mail, info@amishpeddler.com. Thank You!!

Upholstered Headboard on King size bed

Jill from Pittsburgh came to us with the special request of having an upholstered headboard on her bed.
She had seen it elsewhere but couldn't find anyone to build it to her specifications.
 We were able to have a Bunker Hill Style bed made with the option of being able to
change out the cushions of the headboard.
The bed is a king size with Brown Maple wood with Rich Tobacco stain. She also wanted a low footboard so she can sit on the end of the bed.
 The Shaker dresser was made to be narrower but higher than a standard dresser.

Shaker Hard Rock Maple Dining Room Set


 Ken and Amy of Jamestown came to us looking for a large dining room table made with light colored wood for their lakefront home. They selected a Natural Hard Rock Maple dining room set. They wanted everyone to be able to sit around the table for dinners and get togethers. It looks like they will accomplish that!


 The Shaker Double pedestal table made from Hard Rock Maple is 72" long and 48" wide and it has three leaves in it.


Here you can see the beautiful grain in the maple wood.

Road Trip Conclusion

Last week I went on a road trip to Eastern PA, Maryland and Virginia. It was a great time! The weather was beautiful and I enjoyed every minute of it.
My first stop was the little town of Middleburg, PA.  Terry and Cathy built a new pergola and selected outdoor furniture, two gliders and an end table, to go inside of it.


After I dropped off the gliders and table, I stopped for breakfast in Middleburg at Common Grounds Cafe and had the best breakfast bagel sandwich I've ever eaten!  I liked it so much that I stopped there again on the way back from Virginia the next morning.

Next stop: Baltimore, Maryland.  I delivered a six foot wide table with six highback chairs to Our Lady of Fatima Senior Housing Project. They had a new gazebo and wanted a large table that would seat six people comfortably. After bolting the table directly to the concrete we put the chairs around it and it was ready to go.


  
  
Installing the table.

 
Finished table and chairs.


  The next stop was Alexandria, Virginia to pick up Joel and Judy's table.  They wanted to convert their table to a bigger size.  The original table was 42" x 66" with four leaves.  We'll be adding four more leaves to the table and refinishing the top to look like new.  Pictures to come later.

My last stop was to see Chip in Ashburn, VA to deliver an entertainment center. He was very happy with it since the entertainment center was designed to fit the TV.  I think it turned out great!




 All in all, I enjoyed meeting everyone on this little road trip and I hope to do more soon!

Duplicating Furniture

The Pine headboard to be duplicted.

The shelves being curved out created some logistical problems, as well as the scalloped sides.
 Ken and Ellen of Cranberry Township came to us to duplicate a headboard they had for many years. They bought a dresser and other pieces but their headboard was made of pine and it didn't match with their new bedroom set. They loved their old headboard and commisioned us to have a duplicate headboard made but out of oak with the same stain as the rest of their bedroom furninture. Check it out!

The new oak headboard!
We were able to create the same curved shelves and scalloped sides!

Designing a Custom Entertainment Center by Amish Peddler



Bob and Janet of Cranberry Township stopped by in February to ask us about designing a custom entertainment center for them. They brought a picture of the front cover of "The Family Handyman" magazine. They wanted to have a lot of the same features that were on the cover of their magazine.


We spent about an hour designing and drafting an entertainment center that would fit in the area they designated for the entertainment center. There were several requirements they had for the entertainment center. Bob and Janet wanted a speaker cloth panel in the center of the entertianment center. They wanted to fill out the wall so it was to be 107" high and 144" wide. The entertainment center had to be fastened to the wall giving the built-in entertainment center look. The molding has to be like the picture of the magazine and have lights on the top to diplay the items on the top shelf. 
This is the result of what we designed and built.

Speaker Cloth in doors

This is what Janet had to say after we installed it in her family room.

"We have received many compliments and I enjoy it looking at it everyday!  Thank you!" - Janet

Thank you Bob and Janet for trusting us to build your entertainment center!
