    Lightbulb Sustainable, Local, Custom-Furniture for the Middle Class Exists!

    It's true!

    We are a small, enthusiastic partnership based in Portland, OR. Our focus is on representing local artisans (woodworkers, cabinet and furniture makers, etc.) and artists who utilize best practices and reclaimed materials whenever possible.

    Our audience is solidly middle-income. Our shop is in the blue-collar part of town, with white collar workers migrating through on a daily basis.

    We want everyone to be able to come into our showroom, drool over our custom-pieces, and dance with delight when they realize they can actually take them home!

    During this odd time, we want folks to feel they have somewhere to shop where they know that what they are buying is locally made, made of sustainable materials, is heirloom-quality and built to last for generations to come...all without breaking the bank.

    It may sound to good to be true, but we are doing it! Folks are fascinated with our shop and our workers. We must be doing something right...we are here to see what else we can be doing to keep these homefires burning.

    Glad to be here!

    Welcome to YE

    Great to hear about your new biz venture!

    It sounds like you are off to a great start!
    Yes, reclaimed wood products seem to be very popular! Do you have some photos of some of your handmade furniture that you can show us?

    I am interested in seeing some.

    Cheers,

    Adam T.
