Our Mission
Mangrove Designs Custom Furniture & Woodworking
For as long as I can remember I wanted to be a carpenter. Basically, I wanted to be my grandfather. I still remember the smell of his dank basement in Enfield, CT where his big green radial arm saw resided. I can still see him walking across the top plate of a framed wall on a construction site and being amazed. I wanted to be him…that feeling never went away.
It took a few decades to get here, but in 2016, Mangrove Designs was formed.
Why buy custom? Many reasons. You may need a very specific size table to fit just right in your space. Perhaps you need a custom piece to perfectly match the style and décor of your home or office. Maybe you have in mind a design that just doesn’t exist at retail or you’ve seen what you want at retail but the quality leaves much to be desired. Or you’re tired of everyone in your neighborhood having the same exact thing. That’s where we come in.
Our vision? To provide you with the best experience possible from our initial consultation to final install of your project.
Our desire is to make your vision a reality and in the end deliver an heirloom piece that will last generations.
Whether ordering a massive live edge table, custom cabinetry or built-in, conference room table, kitchen & bathroom remodel… you can be guaranteed that every piece that leaves our humble workshop will be given the same attention to detail.
We look forward to making you part of the Mangrove Designs family!

Had a great experience with KC! He is responsive, honest and very detailed. He listens to his clients and lets them direct him as to what they want and provides suggestions as to how their vision can be realized. My vanity is beautiful! It will definitely be the show piece for my bathroom addition. I would absolutely recommend using Mangrove Designs for any custom furniture needs.
I will not hesitate to use KC again when I remodel the kitchen.

Ok, so I never post this much, but I have to brag a bit on KC Bonney and Mangrove Designs....he completely did this whole room: ceiling, walls, bourbon barrel table to homemade bar. He even designed it all and it’s absolutely amazing!! I recommend him 1000% over for anything you are dreaming of doing!

Amazing quality custom dining room table fitted to our space. Better quality and better price than if we had bought something pre-made, and we got to customize all of the details. We will definitely be using Mangrove for all of our upcoming furniture upgrades

The team at Mangrove Designs made purchasing our custom high top tables a breeze! We couldn't be happier with their work and get many comments and compliments on the tables, which have really transformed our space. Truly works of art! Mangrove Designs was a pleasure to work with start to finish! They took our vision and turned it into a reality! KC offered several options on our project to help make it fit our budget. He was professional, courteous, and always friendly. We couldn't be happier with the end result! We are now proud to have functional pieces of art in the center of our tasting room for all to enjoy and improve their overall experience. We look forward to working with Mangrove on future projects!

Our custom walnut dry bar was installed today and I couldn’t be happier with the result. KC was great to work with; excellent listener, designer, attention to detail, craftsman’s skills, along with great communication skills. He provided updates throughout the build process which kept me excited for install day. He delivered ahead of schedule which was very much appreciated.. Thank you KC for your gorgeous work and partnership. I will have more projects in the future for you.
