Come view a gallery of high design, sustainable style and true craftsmanship. Over 50 pieces of fine furnishings created from reclaimed, repurposed and salvaged materials. From sinker cypress to street signs, window sashes to newspaper, heart pine to wrought iron, there is nothing that cannot be reused with creativity and style. See the pieces for yourself and then come to the gala on April 16th, 2011 to bid on your favorites!
