Happy Tuesday y'all! I've been working on a new service to offer in Galveston. If you own a historical home it might need some items that need repair or replacement.
I bought an old shutter (the blue one), from Galveston Historical Foundation Architectural Salvage warehouse and have spent the last 9 months teaching myself how to make the antique blinds that are on many Galveston homes. The black blind shown is for example, It's from Ashton Villa.
It's really neat to see the craftsmanship that went into making these! Here are some photos of my work in progress on a 48" x 17.25" moveable louver blind restoration. I'm recreating this one from western red cedar.
-Restoration & repair of moveable/fixed louver slats and control arms
-Repair of porch corbels and ornamental decoration
-Fabrication of missing or broken parts
-Exact parts match based on original
-Paint matching
-Made right here in Galveston!
