How Sticks Kitchen Tables and Dining Room tables are made... Artist Sarah Grant designs each wood Sticks table with vivid imagery and uplifting themes. A drawing is sketched right on the wooden table. An artist then engraves the design. Next the table is sealed with one of several stain choices. Another artist then paints in the design. Finally, the Sticks table is finished with multiple layers of sealant.

Furniture
The raw wood is transformed into furniture by Sticks' team of master woodworkers. The piece is then sent to the drawing studio where the artwork is sketched onto the furniture. The sketches are then given more character and depth by being wood burned and engraved. The piece is then stained and sanded, at which point it is hand-painted in the paint studio. Once the painting is complete and dry, the piece receives several coats of polyurethane to give it the durability of a hardwood floor.
Tables--
Tables have about five coats of polyurethane; this means that having a glass of ice water or hot coffee will not leave a ring on the table. However, do not allow anything wet to sit for a long time or it will leave a ring (as on any table).
Sticks creates finely crafted and beautifully designed object art, accessories and furniture that can best be described as unique, fun, imaginative, creative, inspiring. If you're looking for something special for your home or for a unique gift for the person who has everything, Sticks designs one-of-a-kind pieces that definitely make a statement. Each piece is handcrafted, designed and painted with vivid imagery and uplifting themes.
