LEXINGTON-Located in Lexington, Robin Wade Furniture celebrates with a ribbon cutting and a tour of the workshop on Friday, February 27. He had several of the local caterers there to provide food and several of the tourism agencies were represented, UNA, and Lexington town officials were on hand to help with the celebrations. The Shoals Chamber was along to help with the ribbon cutting. All in all the day was full of fun, friendship and of course Robin’s beautiful furniture.
Here is a little about Robin Wade furniture and all of the events happening on Friday:

Robin’s creations are a celebration of nature—a melding of a forwardthinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. Robin’s work can be found in select homes & showrooms across the country, as well as museums and galleries. Locally, Robin’s work can be found on display in: Florence Lauderdale Tourism Center, Rosenbaum Home reception, Progress Bank, Marriott Shoals,and Museum of Alabama.
