Adrian is truly an artist, with years of experience delivering unique products on time, with professionalism, and exceeding expectations. Thanks guys, for all you do! And especially for my new buttery soft wood counters!

Ashley M.

Adrian and Charlie were very helpful in selecting wood for my new desk and shelving by using a door from the 1800’s. Lots of wood with character, one just has to see what it could become.

OUR STORY

Early Bird Creative was the natural outgrowth from a local, family-owned business. Pat and Nita Kennedy founded Olde World Door and Sunshine Glass back in 1982, entrusting it to their son, Adrian, after they retired in 2013. As Adrian continued their tradition of building finely crafted custom doors and stained glass windows, he also discovered a passion for furniture-making. Marrying the classic artistry of his parents’ legacy with his own modern sensabilities, Adrian has created something entirely new for our customers to enjoy.
