Honeoye Falls Carriage Factory

We know you love barn wood as much as we do so we recently salvaged quite a large amount from a former Honeoye Falls Carriage Factory.  Although this isn’t officially from a barn, it has aged just as beautifully.

One customer, Glenn came in and purchased several armloads of this wood and used it to make part of a bar and matching shelving.  He sent us some great photos to share with you as inspiration for your own “barn” wood projects.  You can see the wood on the front face of the bar, the floating shelves behind, and around the shelf opening on the back of the bar.

Rest in Peace at West Webster Cemetery

Last year ReHouse was asked to salvage the 100+ year old wrought iron fence and gates from the West Webster Cemetery.  The fence was being replaced bot because of damage or any issue with its functionality, but because of a demand by the insurance company.  So, we salvaged it.  And now we have over 100 pieces available for your home project.

From the Cemetery’s website In 1790, shortly after Oliver Phelps opened a land office in Canandaigua, New York, the Phelps and Gorham Purchase set aside one-half acre of land specifically for burials. Located at the corner of what are now Ridge Road and Maple Drive, this parcel eventually would be known as the West Webster Cemetery and the earliest cemetery in what would become the town of Webster, New York.

“On April 12, 1878, the cemetery was incorporated under the name of West Webster Cemetery Association. In 1908 an iron fence, which remains today, was erected along Ridge Road and north on, what was then, Cemetery Road. The vault was constructed in 1912. Through the years, parcels of land were acquired from adjoining property owners enlarging the cemetery to its present size of 5.10 acres.

“Throughout its history, West Webster Cemetery has become a final resting place for many men and women in uniform who proudly served their community and country.”
