Hey All,

I live in the Milwaukee area and I was wondering if any of you know of any Shaker Furniture Classes. I am very interested in building Shaker Style Furniture and I would like to take a class if they are available.

Thanks in advance!

I’m hoping you can find a class, and if you haven’t already taken a look at the Shaker Furniture drawings- you should. You may decide you want to just go for it – even before a class…looks like you have the skill to do it.
