Woodworking couple join Artisans’ Attic co-operative
Friday May 23 2008 Two new members, the husband and wife team of Mike Bergeron and Monica Mori, have joined the Artisans’ Attic fold.
Bergeron and Mori have 39 years of experience between them in the art of woodworking originating from their high school days when Mike’s first piece of beautiful wood art, an intricately engraved planter, was given to his then high school sweetheart Monica.  
Together they have handcrafted mission-style furniture that adorns their home and now offer carefully honed functional wood items at the Artisans’ Attic. These include exquisite breadboards, bowls, distinctive pens and many other items for home, cottage and office.
In the making of their delightful pieces Mori and Bergeron highlight the natural grains, colours and distinctive features of each wood that are gathered from around the world.
