                        Hello from  Meb Boden and Tom Vaiciulis!  All our work, from layout to finish, is made of New England hardwoods, in our rural, 600-square-foot workshop. 
                         
                        Unlike some craftspeople who are simply designers with a factory here or abroad and a warehouse of stock waiting to ship, Tom and I design and MAKE each piece that comes out of our workshop.  Our simplest piece, the cheese knife, takes 11 steps, but most require 20 steps from layout to final finish. 

                        No big factory, no outsourcing, no crowds of employees. Just us. Meb and Tom. And a few friends from time to time. So we DON’T keep masses of product (all the same) ready for purchase. When you want something, maybe we’ll find the one you want waiting here in the workshop. But most likely we’ll make you one, out of the type of wood you want, with special requests (use your imagination) sprinkled in for good measure.

                         What News?

                        __ Now preparations for our Craft Year begin! This is the time to decide WHAT we want to make this year, WHERE we wish to show our goodies and HOW we will present ourselves and our new work.  

                        We’ll start off this show year with a tribute to Valentine’s Day—my first trunk show—at a local gallery. See details below.
