Who We Are
Meet the family, become family. See you at [the] Reunion!
Welcome to Reunion Designs, where craftsmanship, creativity, and a love for timeless pieces come together. As a family-run, all-in-one business, we specialize in custom furniture, curated interiors, heirloom restoration, and a thoughtfully collected home-goods shop. Every piece we create, restore, or curate is done with care, intention, and a deep appreciation for the stories that make a home.
Johnny Russell
The Craftsman
& Innovator
Johnny helps bring Jessie's vision to life, whether creating something new or bringing an old piece back to life.
Jessie Russell
The Curator
& Visionary
Jessie is passionate about creating spaces where people feel comfortable and loved.
VarnWood
The Home we Came Home to...
Known to the family as "VarnWood," this has been our family home since 1910.

Whether sewing one-of-a-kind dresses, aprons, and drawstring bags or keeping an eye on her great-grandbabies, Nan is an i indispensable part of Reunion House.
The Seamstress
& Supporter
Bruce Merriman
The Greeter
Bruce, or "Paboo," as his grandchildren affectionately call him, can be found welcoming guests into Reunion House. Be sure to stop by and shoot the breeze with Brucey.
Abby Madsen
The Marketer
Jessie and Johnny's daughter, Abby, gets to combine her love of family, fonts, and formatting. She considers promoting the shop on social media and building the Reunion website such an honor!
Grant Russell
The Muscle
Johnny and Jessie's son, Grant, is a skilled woodworker in his own right. Since discovering his passion for mechanics, he no longer works in the Reunion Woodshop but is always ready to lend a hand!
Andrew Madsen
The IT Wrangler
Andrew is Abby's cutie-pie husband who helps the family with any technical issues or IT snags. He also helps wrangle their daughters, Ro and Merrin, while Abby works Market Days.
Hannah Russell
The Encourager
Hannah is Grant's sweet wife who makes a point to stop by and support the family every Market Day. Her kind words can easily lift anyone's spirits!
RoRo Madsen
The Helping Hands
Roselyn Jane, or "RoRo," is Andrew and Abby's daughter who can be seen chasing her grandparents' kitty cat all over the porch. She is always ready to "help" -- usually by wanting to clean breakable merchandise.
Merrin Madsen
The Smiling Face
If you hear a happy pterodactyl while browsing the market, it's probably Merrin. She is Andrew and Abby's daughter who is always smiling and saying "hey" to anyone she meets.
Wash & Millie
The Airedales
These sweeties are Johnny and Jessie's brother-and-sister duo. They are named after George Washington and his sister Millie. Curious about the names? Johnny is a Revolutionary-War buff!
Our Faith
The foundation of it all...
We love because He first loved us.
We love home because we built it on Him.
"Lord, You have been our dwelling place [our refuge, our sanctuary, our stability] in all generations."​
Psalm 90:1, Amplified Bible
