    I was fortunate to live north of Chicago, where the money flows for projects like this and got to build several classical mantels similar to yours.... so much fun. One thing I always loved to do is put something inside like a time capsule. I asked the clients if they wanted to include some photos or kid's drawings and of course, the latest Sunday paper. My signature and the date is written behind my work in large homes all over the North Shore.

    I have been a woodworker for a little over 25 years. I've built custom cabinets, furniture, decor, jigs, bars, and fireplaces, etc. I loved being able to have some creative control when it came to fireplaces. Being able to put in custom corbels instead of cookie-cutter designs was probably my favorite thing about building fireplaces. Corbels are so unique, versatile, and add so much character and personality to walls, doorways and fireplace mantels. Back in the early ages of architecture they were not only used for support but as a decorative piece not supporting anything at all. I'm glad they are making a comeback especially in French Provential-themed home interior as a decorative element and not just a pretty bracket. Great job!
