Hi, my name is Keith Payne. and I am a 59 year old woman, LOL. Yep, a woman named Keith. But, don't let that fool you. I love my work and take great care with each item.
My parents and I recently bought a house and a few acres. I used to live on 22 acres with two spring fed ponds, so it was a big change. I, with lots of help from my friends, built a fence for my horse, Carat, 2 dogs, Baby Dump and Snoopy, and a goose named Goose. Sometimes I have some Humane Society and Feral Cat Society foster animals. I built the fence specifically so that I could keep "climber" and "digger" dogs. You will see some of them in the item pictures. Shakey, my smallest little rescue kitty, "personally" checks out each and every item I build.
A while back, I had to send my 14 year old
beloved dog, Pick-up, across the Rainbow
Bridge. It is her picture, "The Old Girl"

She was my best friend. I very much miss her still.
We live in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and there are 20 miles between us and a grocery store in any direction.

I, at the age of 46, decided to "chuck it all" and learn how to remodel houses and work with wood. I have enjoyed wood working all my life. So, I signed on with a small general contractor and did it all. I can now operate a large extendahoe to dig footings and go on from there until the roof is on, the interior is finished, and the folks move in. Hopefully, one day, I will do it all for my own house.
At the age of 52, (due to the slow down in the construction business around here, and the fact that I was not getting any younger, LOL), I became interested in crafting quality pet furniture from wood, not plastic, plywood, or the like. I saw a need for beds, houses, and litter box hiders that would match the decor of a nice house, not cheapen it. So, there we have it.
I hope you have enjoyed my website and have perhaps found something that you would like to have for your babies. I do a great deal of custom work, so.......let me know if there is something you would like that is not shown here.
Thanks for visiting us............Have a good one, Keith
