Inside the hidden wood-shop crafting beautiful furniture on Cleveland's west side

CLEVELAND — Tucked away inside the Habitat for Humanity ReStore on Cleveland's W. 110th street is a real hidden gem.

In addition to the wide range of home improvement items lining the aisles, you'll also find a fully functioning wood-shop.

At ReStore, a team of skilled volunteers are on hand to repair broken and damaged donations, and also craft brand-new works of art. They've turned old clocks into bookcases, pianos into wine bars and even produce a wide-range of original wood accessories. These artisans are mostly retired, volunteering their time and keeping busy by doing what they love.

3News' own, Jay Crawford happens to share a love for woodworking, and when he learned about this special place, knew he had to check it out.

Jay decided to team up with the crew to craft a brand new podium to use on the "What's New" set. Watch the video in the player above to see how it all turned out!

Last year, Home Again made 400 deliveries throughout the northeast Avalon area, but #Snowmageddon and the pandemic created a serious disruption in their pickups and deliveries. No deliveries were made at all in April. Amy Tulk of Home Again Furniture Bank says it saddened her to think of the people who were going without some of the essentials many take for granted – like a bed. She recalls one incident involving the reaction of a man who received a twin bed after going for an extended time sleeping on the floor. She says many take a good night's sleep for granted and the man, who was six feet tall, told her he couldn't wait to go to sleep in his twin bed after months of sleeping on the...
