If I had to pick one thing that I hear over and over from people, it’s that. People just want to touch them. VKC: What are some of the best stories a table owner/buyer has shared with you? Michelle: I don’t know that I could pick just one. A single mother, whose husband left her, wanted one of my tables to be her first “starting over” piece of furniture. A sweet couple from the West Bottoms area called me on my cell phone a few hours after they had picked up a table and placed it in their home. The husband said one side was high- er than the other three. I assured him that Lonnie, my perfectionist builder, checks the tables after he builds them. I check them for a week while I’m all over them, finishing them, and my husband checks them before we load them in the truck to take to a store. The husband persisted very nicely that he was just sure that something was wrong.
