About

Dad's Primitive Workbench is very much a family business built out of love. 
Love of creating.  Love of family.  Love of community.

Owner, Charlie Clay, started creating and surrounding himself with treasures as a young man. Growing up at the workbench of his beloved late father Scott, Charlie's creativeness revealed itself through paintbrushes, power tools and stitchery. Later, Charlie's love of "picking" at auctions and barn sales created opportunities for procuring treasured pieces for clients, as well as for his own brick and mortar store in downtown Marietta that is a mix of primitive and farmhouse antiques and decor, seasonal offerings, the best smelling candles and realistic faux florals. The Shoppe is an escape for many, and Charlie along with his beautiful wife and co-owner Stephanie enjoy adding new items daily through their areas and their vendors. The store has 10 vendors who bring in wonderfully curated goods for your home and seasonal decor to add that special touch. Charlie and Stephanie are always pickin' new items to display through out the store and at their shows and the daily lives they do with the customers!  Stephanie also makes their signature collection of home fragrance that we feature right as you enter the store or can order online to make your home feel like the coziest place on earth.
