Old School On The 8th
2201 Mersea Road 8 N0P 2P0 Wheatley, ON, Canada

If you’re not a fan of shopping at the big box stores for your next DIY project, feel free to reach out and see if we can help. We’ve been supporting local, and have found some really awesome pieces that you won’t find in the big stores! If we don’t have it, we can find it!

If you made it out to our Christmas Open house and grabbed some cookies or cupcakes even if you didn’t get the chance, we highly recommend Mo's Goodies.

Sleep is one of the most important parts of our day to day lives following closely to water and paying taxes we figure if we’re going to sleep in style our pets should have that luxury also. Check out this farmhouse pet bed available in any shape, size, or colour. We can tailor one to your pets favourite mattress or we can include in the price a brand new one as shown in this photo. This one is available for purchase. Message for any details and we will be happy to work with you and your pets needs. #dogmom #catmom #puppy #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #farmhouse

Just finished up these blanket ladders! Tried something new this time, on the right we burnt with a torch before staining, to bring out the grains in the wood. The center is regular stain, and the right we hit with 10,000 volts to give it a random electric burning pattern in the wood! What do you think? We are open this Saturday and Sunday from 10am until 3pm!
