Perry County
Woodwork
Stewart is new to his craft as he said he has only been making
items out of wood for about six months. He said that he must thank his
friend Mr. Jimmy Scruggs who helped him get started making birdhouses and
tables. His wood of choice is cedar, which he gathers near Eutaw,
Alabama.
The two-legged tables that Stewart makes rest on feet, and the
feet wear “flip flops”! While making quite a statement, they were
originally designed as bathroom seating.
Stewart’s work can also be found in several stores in Marion,
Alabama, besides being featured in Black Belt Treasures.
