Barnwood Beds made in Minnesota and Hand Crafted



This video highlights some of the barnwood beds that we have made over the past 10 years since we have added the barnwood product line at Vienna Woodworks Furniture Co.

Barn Wood is a unique wood that is mostly heart pine and douglas fir.It has a beautiful natural patina that can not be replicated with stain which is why we use only a clear coat finish on the barnwood furniture.  This wood is also very old and was growing here in North America for centuries before settlers in Minnesota cut down the trees to build houses and barns.  Since it grew for so long, it was much larger than today's trees get.  The trees were significantly larger and because of their long growth the center of the pine trees was much harder and denser than what we see in new growth lumber today.  The wood is much stronger than what we think of dimensional pine lumber from lumber yards.  All of the translates into a stronger and more beautiful furniture piece because the wood looks a lot different on top of being so much stronger and more durable!

What was used in the past in barns to sustain life giving animals and seeds is now available through Vienna Woodworks Furniture co as furniture that will continue to last for years to come.  Salvaging this wood for furniture pieces is no easy task but it is worth the time and effort because of its unique character.  We can build anything from barn wood so we welcome your custom requests!

RECLAIMED BARN WOOD VANITY

Arched BarnWood Vanity with Drawers

At Vienna Woodworks Furniture Co we are constantly adding or modifying designs mostly because we are a custom furniture shop that specializes in reclaimed wood furniture.  Customers contact us frequently to make them something unique.  I think that is one of the most enjoyable parts of owning this business. Instead of making the same exact piece of furniture day in and day out, I get a chance to design new pieces or modify old pieces constantly.  Especially barnwood vanity and medicine cabinet products. 

Sometimes it is difficult to share a photo of every single piece that we make because we are focused on getting the product to the customer as quickly as possible.  Often I find that a photo shoot will cause a delay.  However, when possible we do take pictures so that we can add them to our blog and website.  I hope that the photos we add will inspire customers to come up with their own ideas and designs so they can have something that no one else owns, made just for them. 

Here is our Arched barnwood Vanity with drawers added.  We've made many of the version of this piece with just the two doors in a variety of sizes ranging from 24 inch to 36 inch.  This 42 inch version was recently made for a customer and we love the way the two tone barnwood looked!

Here is another version of the vanity that's been super popular.  It has a more subtle gray in it in the doors but  we will make whatever makes the customer happy and everyone has different tastes for their rustic decor! Just ask us, and we will do whatever you want.

Barn Wood Bed Styles new for 2017

Our Barn Wood Bed collection has grown since we started building them in 2007! Over the past ten years we have added a few variations to the original Arched Barnwood bed. Originally it came in brown barnwood and we then added gray panels to provide the option to have a two tone mix of brown and weathered gray.  We do not use stain on these pieces because we think that the natural patina of the reclaimed wood is much more unique and beautiful!

Recently we started making our arched beds in platform bed style with optional drawers in either the front or the sides of the bed. This line has been well received so we thought we would share some of the photos on our blog.

All of our beds are made by hand in Minnesota in our shop, and can also be viewed and purchased at Vienna Woodworks Furniture Co online

A few more styles are shown above.  We have been working hard in the shop to keep adding to our line and have also received may customer requests for new styles as well.  If you would like a custom design, please contact us at info@viennawoodworks.com or call us at 888-625-7570!
