I will be honest, I have been a carpentry contractor for 28 years and a third generation home builder and I can tell you that rustic design can be very labor intensive and therefore expensive. My prices are modest and fair considering the amount of labor involved and it shows in my work.
Depending on the complexity, large items such as beds start in the thousands. Simple items, such as chairs and small tables start below a thousand dollars but can also go into the thousands, but this depends on the complexity and type of wood used, email or call for firm pricing.Thank you, for visiting Forrest creations.
Ernest Forrest Jr.
Ernest was born and raised in historic Bucks County Pennsylvania. At 45 Ernest has devoted his life to carpentry. As a young adult he worked building custom homes with his father. Latter in life he moved to Gunnison Colorado where he attended college at Western State.
Continuing to work part time as a carpenter he acquired a job with one of Crested Butte's finest custom log home builders, there Ernest realized his love for the Rustic arts and the inspiration that he was looking for in his life. Ernest has been fortunate to have an extensive construction background and uses his life experiences and natural talent to use only the most unique material that nature can provided to create functional pieces of art that express his feelings for nature's beauty. Ernest has a unique style, very refined and strives for comfort while accenting his work with the spirit and emotion of the west. His work can be seen in various homes in New York, New Jersey and New England, galleries in Adirondacks and in the Lake Placid Lodge. Ernest lives in the mountains of North Eastern Pennsylvania where he crafts his chairs, beds and tables etc. With his extensive construction background he also travels for his customers for various rustic accents and general construction projects in homes and lodges.
