We Mathers are adventurous! We live life to the fullest. Much of our inspiration comes from a love of nature and being one with the outdoors. We hike...We explore...We swim... We rock climb... We abseil, and we do it together as a family and often. Nature brings out deep emotion in me, taking me back to my childhood in a tree house, or swinging from a monkey vine. There is nothing quite so beautiful as the Australian bush. The texture and the smell of our trees and flowers, take my mind to that piece of paradise. Beautifully hand crafted furniture does the same.
When designing and building our furniture, each piece has a story. Each piece represents a labour of love and care, history and a timeline in our life and marriage. Parts were sought from various places, and the detail he puts into his work is next to none. We have created heirlooms precious to our family that will be passed down to our children, and our great grand children..... As will our stories.

Mark found this old window from a renovation he was doing, and it was about to be tossed out by the owners. He sanded it, and gave it a new lick of paint. A window into our family.
Jett, not quite big enough for his chair yet :)
The three little rocking chairs made for our children for Christmas. Each with their names engraved and a signature piece to lock the chair in place on the back
Enjoying the beautiful Tomah Botanical Gardens
