Where We Are and Why We're Here!
To begin with, our shop is located very near the shores of Oceanside, California.
The sound of waves and smell of sea give us the inspiration to create unique and beautiful items to sell . Our family has lived here on the coast for 4 generations and our bond with the ocean is strong.
A stone's throw to the East is the largest of the 21 California Missions to be erected. This is the Mission San Luis Rey Francia. Visitors from around the world come to see this beautiful Mission. Our home is located within this historic District.
Our shop, DesignersShowcaseCa began in 2012. When retirement became a reality, boredom soon set in and my love of woodworking came forward as a hobby. This was my passion throughout my entire life. Making useful items from wood soon became a business rather than a hobby. My life partner, Donna, a craft teacher, began creating beautiful furniture and other artful items for me to construct. Together, we become a business that is full of fun, laughter, and creative fulfillment. Our customers have become our friends and we treat all customers as we would want others to treat us.
Our mantra is "Give our customers more than they expect and they will come back" And they do!!!
