#23 Giant Blackboard

We built this big blackboard / picture frame combination for a designer. Her customer wanted something for the kitchen that could house pictures of family to the right x3 and a big blackboard on the left.. We decorated it with antique ceiling tiles on the top left and hinged the picture frame portion with big reclaimed door hinges. The whole thing was made from reclaimed wood and the rest is history... oh, note the lip on the bottom for chalk.. It is made out of an old floorboard.

#22 Basket Tables - the perfect magazine rack!

When is an egg basket a Side Table?
When it's a table made from an Egg Basket (used for the transport of egg crates) and Reclaimed wood...These unique items were designed by Forever Interiors for a large Multinational US Corporation as both side table and magazine rack. Sadly they decided not to populate their chain of 100 million restaurants with the basket table but their loss is your gain... Everyone loves them and their selling like hotcakes. We have three left and we are taking orders for many more in all different colours and finishes... don't wait, cause your magazines can sit on the floor forever.

#20 Contact Photography May 2010

A big thanks to all those that braved the rain and usually cold weather to see the Photography of Emma Davidson in the store on May 8th. Emma's work is a retrospect of her life on her parents farm while growing up. The work is creative, personal and I might add, whimsical. Emma is Photography student at Ryerson. Great work Emma, you have the whole world a head of you!  

Emma's work will be a Forever Interiors for the month of May

#19 Reclamation Man - As seen on TV

Hi All, thanks for the calls and emails regarding our appearance on Global TV's "a day in the life" program. It was lots of fun and my make-up did not run (that rhymes). For those that missed it, the crew at Global TV , Julie and Max, followed me around for a while to get a better idea of what we do here at Forever.
Thanks again for the warm wishes and thank you Julie (Global TV producer) and Max (Global TV videogrrapher) for your directions and being fun to work with!

#16 Tammy DoorShelf

I don't know what it is but everyone wants a shelf unit. Maybe its a beginning of the year thing or something, in any case people are asking for it and we are building them. A few days ago while on delivery I came across one of the most unique shelf ideas. Our customer - Tammy, was doing relief work in New Orleans a few years back during Katrina and noticed the ingenious uses of reclaimed materials. Building were torn to bits and pieces were literally lying around. Locals would gather the pieces and use them as building material for everything from walls to cabinets to tables. Now at home, Tammy picked up on that and took a door, added a shelf and created what you see. I call it the Tammy DoorShelf  and we build it right here at Forever Interiors..
Thank you Tammy, great idea
Martin
