#8 "Sweet" Side Tables



A couple of stunning pieces!
We are proud of this one. The bases are reclaimed chrome table bases from some 70"s side tables. They probably came originally with glass tops but that was then... enter the year 2009.. One Hundred Twenty One year old Pine and a golden pecan finish will do the trick. Come see them with your own eyes in our showroom. 2903 Dundas street west.

#7 Tables Tables and more Tables




Happy Fall everyone.. you're probably too late for a Thanksgiving table but chances are good we can build you a Table for Christmas dinner. We use 121 year old reclaimed wood from the former Victoria Royce church in the Junction area of Toronto. Contemporary wooden base tables, modern looking tables with industrial styled metal bases and of course traditional harvest tables like the one pictured.

Forever Alligator Bench #6


Hi Everyone, Happy summer!

Nothing says summer more than lounging around in the hot sun and doing nothing. What better than a Forever Alligator Bench to lounge on.

New from the ground up, we designed and built a couple of these for the Patio at Margaret's (a Bar, down the street at Dundas and Pacific). Now we are building them for everyone.

Does it look like a Alligator? I think it does.

Number #5 church wood


What are we known for at Forever Interiors you ask? Making new things from old things.
Our new big thing is tables, we're making tables left right and centre from 121 year old wood that is currently being removed from a church turn condo project (don't worry, the church buildings will remain intact). All interiors walls, fixtures and some of the floors are being removed. It's a great opportunity and we're making the best of it by building tables from a historic Junction area landmark. Harvest tables, funky rustic tables with metal legs and whatever may be in between, you tell us what you want, we'll build it.

Forever Interiors #2 Bench/Door

History of the Bench & Door

Long before the advent of the door there was the bench. Now you’re probably thinking, what has a bench got to do with a door, well nothing and everything. Long ago in homes big and small, one could freely move from one room to another without obstacle. That was a time of no doors, no privacy and lots of interruptions.

As human beings, we are social creatures, we play together, work together and of course, we live together. On that note, after the advent of the home came the advent of the house guest. Now one could hardly have a guest over without something to sit on, thus the creation of the bench. Why with all these rooms and people living together one could barely have a private conversation. This was a serious problem and like all problems, man would devise a solution. To limit interruptions early man simply placed a bench in the entranceway and had his guest sit on it, thus blocking anyone from entering the room and interrupting a conversation no matter how trivial the subject. Benches you could say were the first doors.

What has this got to do with anything you ask? Forever Interiors makes benches from reclaimed doors.
