Crooked Creations

I’ve always looked at the world in a different way. I love the creative process and enjoy helping people. My “Crooked Creations” are the perfect marriage of these two passions. The roof is what makes my buildings stand apart from the rest. I hand bend each rafter and use reclaimed materials to create that fairy tale look and feel. From driftwood railings to dragon scale or cedar shake roofs,

No two sheds are identical in shape or appearance. These outbuildings are used as Bus Stops, Outhouses, Garden or Potting Sheds, Greenhouses, Chicken coops, Saunas, Playhouses and She Sheds. If you want a building that turns heads, please reach out and let’s create your vision together! We will create a conversation piece for you that is as unique as you are. If you can draw it, we can build it!

 

Testimonials

In 2019 my girlfriend and I had a playhouse designed and built by Dan Hanes of Barntiques Custom Wood & Design. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Dan to develop this project for us. Everything about the experience has exceeded our expectations (service, price, communication, quality). One of the most appreciated aspects in working with Barntiques is how dedicated and genuine Dan was in delivering exactly what we wanted. He has a very artistic approach, which for us, made him the perfect person for our Daughter’s playhouse. He takes great pride in his work and wants each piece to stand uniquely on it’s own.

We would HIGHLY recommend Barntiques to anyone who’s considering a custom wood design project. You will not be disappointed.

Working with Dan was a pleasure. He understood our project and budget and went the extra mile to bring us the perfect little shed. If you’re looking for the typical builder you’ll find them for a dime a dozen, but when looking for someone who can create something that speaks to your uniqueness don’t hesitate to contact Dan and let him create a garden oasis for you.

I wanted to pop you a note regarding the table top you created for me. I came to you with an idea for a long and narrow table that would fit perfectly in my kitchen. I had searched furniture stores and many web sites with no luck. I contacted you with my vision of what I wanted and you nailed it! We worked out using the base and legs from my current table and you made the perfect table top that fit it like a glove. The material and craftsmanship were perfect. This was a custom built table, a one of a kind and I love it. When the table was finished I purchased the perfect chairs to put my vision all together.

Thank you Dan!

I drove past these whimsical buildings for 2-3 years with the dream of owning one someday. We finally stopped and found the perfect building for my garden. It is exactly what my garden entrance needed. Every time we drive into the yard we look at it and smile and we have had so many compliments. I am trying to figure out where I could put another one. Love his work!

About Me

MY NAME IS Dan

I started wood working over 35 years ago and I am as passionate today as I was when I was young. I was a director and teacher in the Foley school district. I’ve designed play sets for musicals and dinner shows for 20 years. I quit teaching after 27 wonderful years to pursue my next passion; building and creating unique works of art. I’ve seen so many old barns that were being torn down and just could not let such beautiful wood with so much character go to waste. I have been doing this for around 7 years but my side gig turned into a full time business and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Most people only dream about the career they deserve but I get to live mine everyday!
