Over the past several decades, the Arts & Crafts style, made famous in the late 1800′s & early 1900′s, has become more popular than ever. Furniture styles of that period are being mass produced by companies worldwide, which goes against the very reason for the Arts & Crafts movement; the Arts & Crafts movement was as a revolution against poorly made industrialized goods of all types, not just furn

iture. Because of historic visionaries of that era, such as Elbert Hubbard of Roycroft fame, America experienced a rebirth of skilled craftspeople who flourished due to the artistic outlet they were afforded in the hand-making of some of the most beautiful and durable goods ever. There is a group of very talented artisans known as Roycroft Renaissance Artisans, who carry on the tradition of high quality hand-made goods. The Roycroft Renaissance is a modern day version of the original Arts & Crafts movement, which serves to preserve and protect the vision and quality that is American Arts & Crafts. As a Roycroft Renaissance Artisan, I am proud to uphold the traditions and time-honored practices that have made true Arts & Crafts thrive. When you see the “double R” orb on a piece of furniture, jewelry, or other item, you can expect the kind of quality and craftsmanship therein that will last for generations, and you can be assured that it was handcrafted by a skilled artisan who upholds the ideal that is Arts & Crafts. As the sole artisan here at Floyd East – Furniture For Life, I design and produce furniture that is influenced by the great minds of the original Arts & Crafts movement, such as Elbert Hubbard, Charles and Henry Greene, and Gustav Stickley. For me, “Furniture For Life” means that the furniture I design and build will not simply last a lifetime, but also enrich the lives of those who have the product of my vision and labor in their homes.

Not in the shop much, but snuck in for a few minutes today, and made a couple of bathroom door signs… 😂

No such thing as a small project. Two new moderately small cutting boards, for my favorite wife. Dragonflies are thought to symbolize new beginnings. A lot of love went into these.
