Our client built their dream home last year and have been slowly finishing the spaces that were not a priority right away. We have several more fun projects in the queue for this couple, but we recently delivered a new desk for their office. They were looking for a desk that would pop against the dark blue walls. We k

Before we started Derek James Woodworking, Derek would build pieces for our family and friends. It's not uncommon for someone to see a piece we have built and request their own piece. That is exactly what happened with this project - our clients saw a rustic bar cart we built (to be featured in a later blog post) and r
One of the primary requests we are seeing this year are custom built-ins for the home office. Everyone wants the perfect background for their video calls! This particular client was looking for a built-in to be painted the same dark green as the walls. They were looking for closed storage on the bottom and a lot of o
We have had the opportunity to build a few bar carts in this style, which we have affectionately deemed "The Jennings".
