I have had a passion for wood working for over 30 years. I have built furniture using old “found” items, giving them new life, as well as building from scratch. I came up with the name ‘Highlander Creations” because of my Scottish heritage and in honor of the Gordon Highlanders. The word “BYDAND” is the Gordon family motto and means “Stand and fight” / “Stand your ground”. And the thistle on the logo is the national flower and emblem for Scotland.
The first thing you will notice about this site is that I don’t have e-commerce set up. Since I don’t inventory items it really doesn’t make a lot of sense to me to do so. What I do is build to order, whether it’s furniture or odds and end small items. I make anything from cutting boards and coasters to tables of all sizes. My work spans many designs, such as farmhouse, mid century mod, as well as rustic and Americana. While I mainly work out of my wood shop, I do have a booth set up at Clayton House in Covington, LA.
I enjoy working with clients to come up with a design they are looking for and using whatever wood they may have in mind. Feel free to browse the photo gallery and contact me with any questions and we can get started on a design for you.
