Shop Update: Upcoming Items, New Workshop, and More!

Shop Update: Upcoming Items, New Workshop, and More!

Hello everyone,

I wanted to share a few updates from LeHay’s Shaker Boxes. I’ve been busy in the workshop and have several pieces of news to share with you!

New Items Available on July 10th

I’m happy to announce that a new batch of Shaker boxes, carriers, and trays will be available for immediate shipment on our website on July 10th, 2024, at noon EST. This latest collection includes a variety of items, from stacks to individual Shaker boxes, as well as Shaker-style carriers and trays. As always, each piece is crafted using locally sourced lumber milled on-site. Pictured below are just a few of the items that will be available!

Medium Sewing Carriers with a Papered Interior!

This release includes a dozen medium sewing carriers with a papered interior, featuring the same vintage floral design paper used in the trays from earlier this year. These carriers are both practical and a perfect match for those who already have one of the trays! You can view additional information on this item by Clicking Here

Workshop Update

Our new workshop addition is now up and running, which is great news as it allows me to continue working on boxes in the main workshop while spending a few hours in the new shop processing lumber. I’m currently processing quartersawn pine for the tops and bottoms. Soon, I'll begin working on quartersawn birch and maple for the bands. This preparation should keep us well-supplied through the fall and winter!

Antique Newspaper Lined Shaker Boxes

I want to thank everyone for the positive response to the antique newspaper-lined Shaker boxes featured in my last newsletter. I'm looking forward to starting the first batch soon, which should be ready by September. I recently found a basket full of Civil War era newspapers that I plan to use for lining some of the new boxes, adding a unique touch of history to each piece.  Additional information on paper lined boxes can be found by Clicking Here!

Stay Connected

If you have any questions, please feel free to Contact Me.  Additionally, you can use the "Request Button" on product information pages to let me know which items you're interested in. This helps me prioritize what to make next based on customer interest.

Thank you for being part of the LeHay’s Shaker Box community!

Sincerely,

Robert LeHay
