Tucked inside a red-brick storefront on historic Main Street in Boonville, Missouri, Never the Same lives up to its name the second you step through the door. Sisters Laura and Lisa transform reclaimed barnwood, salvaged metal, and century-old hardware into one-of-a-kind dining tables, kitchen islands, live-edge benches, and tool-art wall décor you simply won’t see in big-box showrooms. Every piece is imagined, milled, and hand-finished on site, so you can watch a rough plank become a statement heirloom while you browse.
