Fun fact: This armchair is made from figured hard maple — the very same kind of tree that gives us maple syrup. Naturally strong, beautifully grained, and crafted to stand the test of time. 🍁

Which one would you choose?

Would you cozy up in the Maple/Linen Set — soft, neutral tones and handcrafted maple frames — featuring a loveseat, chair-and-a-half, matching ottoman, and console table for a look that’s both relaxed and refined?

Or does the Cherry/Leather Set call your name — rich, warm cherry wood paired with supple leather, featuring a loveseat, Morris chair, classic rocker, and matching side tables for a timeless, inviting space?

Both sets are handcrafted in Boston with heirloom quality and enduring design.

👇 Tell us in the comments — Maple/Linen or Cherry/Leather?

I'm excited to share my nephew's impressive stop animation video! I'd love for you to take a few minutes to watch it and show your support with a like. It would mean a lot to both of us. He's a talented young creator with a bright future ahead.

Happy Halloween! I hope you all enjoy this remake of my original LEGO Werewolf video. This project recreates the video that started it all.

Big News!!

After more than two decades in the business, Boston native and master woodworker Thomas MacDonald, best known as the former host of Rough Cut: Woodworking with Tommy Mac on PBS, is opening his first-ever public showroom in Boston’s Financial District. To celebrate the occasion, Tommy Mac Custom Furniture is hosting a Ribbon Cutting & Grand Opening Celebration on Thursday, October 16, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., featuring music, light bites, and refreshments.

The new space at 155 Federal Street marks a major milestone for the local craftsman, bringing his award-winning artistry from his North End workshop into a public setting where visitors can experience the full Tommy Mac Collection in person. The showroom will showcase handcrafted furniture pieces, including his signature rockers, armchairs, and live-edge tables, which are all made in Massachusetts using traditional joinery techniques and premium North American hardwoods.

Full circle moments in the shop today—standing beside a table I built over 20 years ago after unloading a massive delivery of live edge slabs for the next generation of heirloom pieces. Excited to transform this wood into something timeless once again. Now I just have to pick a slab and get cracken!
