Welcome to Shepherd's Cottage
Gifts Worth Keeping
What could you give your child, grandchild of best friend, that they would still have, enjoy and yet not consume, even 45 or 75 years from now? Your gift would require no batteries, hard drives or adapters. Glimpse into the future of this modern world and see it sitting in their family room beside the easy chair.Your gift still in use in 2085. Imagine the stories it could hold, and tales it could tell.
A gift to last generations.
Pre-made stools, ready to ship.
The idea of putting your story in the form of names, dates, words or phrases on furniture may seem unorthodox, but take a moment and you will discover a pleasant way of telling a warm and lasting chapter. Read stories our customers have had to tell.
