haven't gotten blogging down yet

Written By Robin Wade

Ok, I started with iweb's blog: http://web.me.com/robinwade/robin_wade_furniture_b_log/robins_log_blog/robins_log_blog.html.

It was a really nice and easy way to get started.  Then I started learning about SEO (search engine optimization) as in Google search rankings, etc and knew it was time to improve things.  I think most people probably use wordpress for this.  I tried, wasn't happy with the appearance, attempted to edit, don't know or have time to learn html, so I kept looking.  Just ran across squarespace, and am thinking this is the ticket.  Have 14 days to try it out before the billing period begins.  Here are some "in process" pics I've taken since the first of the year.  This might get me caught up, and with any luck I'll be able to keep it updated a bit better.

Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
