Fat Louie's Retreat

02/03/2025

This weekend's project. Refinished an old buffet to use at Fat Louie's Retreat for the new coffee bar. I sripped the stain off the top, and the paint from the drawers (most of it..I decided I liked it with a little of the old left on it), sawed off the legs and installed brass casters and added a brass towel holder and knobs...I am also adding a shelf to the top to display teacups and saucers...

Planning a retreat for your team? Coeur d'Alene is the perfect town and Fat Louie"s Retreat is the perfect place to stay. There are a variety of team building activities nearby like hiking, biking, kayaking, zip lining, escape rooms, etc... when you're ready to get down to business, we have lots of room to brainstorm and plan along with high speed internet to keep things moving. In the evening unwind by the fire pit, sip wine on the front porch or play a board game at the dining table. The past few years have been crazy, your team needs to connect. If you are interested in planning a team retreat, give me a call. I would be happy to make some suggestions!

Air quality is the region is very unhealthy. It is a great idea to create a room in your house that you can breathe a little easier than. I have mine in the primary bedroom. As you can see from the filter pictured, it works. In less than a day, it's already starting to get black. Please share this simple, inexpensive idea on your page and with anyone that you know that is high risk.
