The New Yankee Workshop (1989)

Episode Overview

Norm poses a thought-provoking question: "Have you ever realized that many armoires and linen presses are often too large for contemporary spaces?" While exploring a private collection in Savannah, Georgia, he discovers an exquisite antique linen press that measures three feet by six feet, making it an adaptable addition to any room. Its sleek, raised-panel double doors adorned with intricate beading lend a touch of modern simplicity. In The New Yankee Workshop, Norm sets out to replicate this piece using recycled pine, aiming to achieve that classic, vintage aesthetic.
