Empty space

It's not very often that I get such a huge area of free space! Thanks everyone, for picking up your orders. Now,  I'll have to work on filling it, with more tables. Especially with the students coming back. I'll want to stock up on espresso coffee tables!

But, not today! I am spending the day with my son. Maybe tomorrow, we can get a few tables into the paint shop. Which is nearly ready, after...

Oh yeah.. I still haven't unveiled the mystery piece.. I know someone knows what it is! You'll just have to wait! It's going to be a masterpiece. I can see it already!

Okay. Back to coffee and babying.

Rain.. Rain.. Bugger off!

How busy is KLR Furniture? Well.. I've got a lineup of projects, waiting to be sanded, painted, sanded, stained, sanded, etc, etc.. And it's bloody raining!

I need a shop, in a bad kind of way. But, at least this gives me a minute, to blog? Scratch that.. I think I see the sun, coming out!


... Several hours later... 

All done! Which means, tomorrow is a full day of paint / stain.. Smelly day.

Semi Weekly Hardware Store Visit

As I get older, I feel myself becoming more and more like Hank Hill.. I am not entirely sure how I feel about it.. Though, I am not exactly upset about it. Especially being able to say, "That boy ain't right."

My regular trips to the hardware store and racially appropriate neighbour certainly do nothing, to sway this image.. As long as I don't run out and buy myself a pickup truck, I should be fine.

I met up with a client first, too. So, now I've got a few projects, to keep me busy. A few guaranteed sales.. I do love all of the compliments and the "I want" 's. I'd love to build you all furniture. But, I need to function, as a business. So, unfortunately, I need a deposit. Just to guarantee that I am making furniture, for a reason.

Making room

So, I need to make some room, for more inventory. I am having a lot of fun, making this stuff.. But, I am always limited by space, it seems.

The dining table has been around for a week, now.. Someone come buy it! I'll give you a free coffee table. Just because I am so awesome. Can't beat that!

Safety and quality

So, what you may not know about KLR Furniture, is that I am also a stay home dad! Building furniture is something I squeeze into my spare time. During nap time, for example.

So how much care goes into my furniture? Well, because the design is almost entirely stored, in my own living space. Along with my toddler, son. These items must be 100% structurally sound and chemical free!

All stain and paint is adequately covered with a polycrylic sealer, which dries fast and non toxic! The paint used, is a very durable brand, designed for metal application. This means that it's especially resistant to scratches and markings.

Did I mention reptile safe??
