Walker Creek Furniture Table With Milk Wash Finish
How Walker Creek furniture is made
We use mortise-and-tenon joinery instead of dowels, and smooth our boards with a hand plane rather than a belt sander. We use only solid wood, no chip-board or veneer. While most furniture is finished with a sprayed-on polyurethane or colored lacquer, we finish every piece by hand using linseed oil, shellac and milk paint, just like 18th century furniture, so the surface feels as good as it looks.

The name on the building is Walker Creek Furniture, but as far as I’m concerned it ought to be Walker Creek Art because all of the furniture in there to me is more than just furniture, they are individual pieces of beauty and style-Art if you will.
Look for the first part of the two part video at 10:00AM

Antique Pine Table From Walker Creek Furniture In Essex, Ma
At Walker Creek Furniture, the team creates unique or custom tables and furniture using wood that comes from old houses, floorboards and other places. Each piece has it’s own history and beauty. The thing that is really cool is that you can go in there for inspiration, see something you like and then tell them that you like it but might want a different finish, size or dimension and they can custom build it to the specs that fit the needs of your particular room. Video number one from Walker Creek comes tomorrow morning at 10:00AM

By looking at the large sign on the building you might think that it’s just a furniture shop. Nope. It’s so much more with some fantastic art including some work by The Mrs’ favorite artist. You’ll see in the second part of the video interview later this week.

The challenge for anyone trying to take a picture of a schooner or any other masted vessel is getting up close for all the detail while keeping the mast and or bowsprit in the frame. You can elect to take a picture of the entire boat or you can take portions, leaving out the bowsprit and/or mast. For our purposes here I wanted to take you in close so you could see just how detailed these ship models are. If this picture was taken of the entire boat you wouldn’t get the up close details.
As always you can click on the picture and select “all sizes” to see the larger version of this picture.
