Wayne and his wife, Nancy retired and moved to Madison in early 2017 after a nearly 40-year career as a baker and cake decorator. Wayne always enjoyed building things and started to build wooden toys for his grandsons and that eventually evolved into creating patio furniture. Initially for family and friends, Wayne started selling patio pieces on Facebook Marketplace in 2023. 

Wayne and Nancy have 3 kids and 3 grandkids with one more on the way.
