While I was getting my coffee at Foxy Loxy in Unionville on Saturday morning, I ran into Doug Mooberry and he reminded me about the open house he's hosting at Kinloch Woodworking from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14. He told me they took a year off from the annual event in 2014, but so many people told him they missed the show that it's back. Kinloch is at 1721 West Doe Run Road (Route 82) in the heart of Unionville.
Doug wrote to me that the folks at Kinloch "have been working on a really neat Wharton Esherick inspired desk,
a shark wall hanging (it’s wood but I still wouldn’t stick my fingers in
its mouth), some Chinese sideboards and an inlaid sea chest made from wood
salvaged from the USS CONSTITUTION. A couple new coffee tables and 2 secretary
desks."
I've been to the Kinloch show many times over the years and it's always a lovely event, with beautiful pieces of furniture to marvel over and lots of local folks to chat with. Plus you get to walk through the wood shop where the pieces are created.
Pat Mooberry, Doug's wife, will also be showing her pottery.
Before or after the show, you can stay in "downtown" Unionville and get something to eat. Doug says, "Foxy
Loxy will be open for coffee, ice cream, breakfast, and lunch and Hood’s invites
everyone to have lunch or dinner after attending the show. Catherine’s Restaurant and they would welcome any Fall Show attendees and will waive the BYOB charge. Hood’s and Catherine’s both recommend reservations." |
