American Wood Importers

Had to post some pics from our much-needed day off yesterday. If you haven't done so lately, we strongly encourage you to take a little time to yourself and stop to smell the flowers (or in our case, the wildfires). Do something that makes you smile! If that thing is woodworking, come visit us! We have been helping our friends and families out non-stop for quite some time now, and this last Saturday we decided that no matter what, Sunday was going to be our therapy day-... and it was FUN! *Special Update: for those of you who have been waiting for our next Cost Rica Trip, they are opening up to residents of most States now...let's talk about a group trip! This will be epic! #americanwoodimporters #gotwood #puravida #ecofriendly #costarica #justgettingstarted #familybusiness #familyyouchoose #offroad #natureisbeautiful #unplugged #strongerthanever #stayhappy #stopandsmelltheroses #youonlyliveonce #livelife #teamwork #alwayshumble #alwaysworking #follow

One of our local friends/customers (@ramidughman ) sent us these photos of his most recent project. He says: "Don’t waste thousands of dollars on your new counter top when you can transform your existing counters with a whole new look for much less!!" He makes custom epoxy counter tops/pieces to hang on your wall (and anything else upon request). ... Feel free to contact Rami anytime to discuss your next project! Follow him, and if you wanna discuss any projects with him, call: 909 618 5333. #americanwoodimporters #puravida #ramidughman #countertops #epoxy #alwayshumble #alwaysworking #familybusiness #familyyouchoose #artist #art #artisanmade #reducereuserecycle

One of our first customers, this man quickly became one of our best friends! So proud of all that Chris has accomplished in the short time since we've met. The new shop is AMAZING! You all should go visit him when you're in Phoenix!! You're sure to see some beautiful things happening!!

Do you remember the promise we all made to NEVER FORGET? Do you remember how you felt in the days, weeks, months, and even years after? America needs to be that united once more, hopefully it doesn't take a tragedy to bring us together again... We are closed today, in their honor. Please join us in sharing your memories. ... I (Mike) was woken up by my cousin Basi, who told me "turn on the TV, we're under attack...looks like we're going to war!" That rest of the day shocked me into wanting to sacrifice myself to be like one of those heroes I saw on the news. I ended up becoming a firefighter/emt first, then a police officer to be part of the group that protects and defends this great Nation that has done so much for me and my family. I've been a proud first responder ever since, and I do it because I love you all as my brothers and sisters. #puravida #newyork #losangeles #neverforget #9/11 #9/11/01 #rememberthefallen #firstresponders #bluelinefamily #proudson #isacrificed #iloveamerica #united #americastrong #wearestrongertogether #alwayshumble #makeherproud #familyyouchoose

Here's to the American Spirit, and here's to recovery and future prosperity! To all of our family and friends: Happy Fourth of July!

Just because...we’ve #GOTWOOD

Heading home for a little bit. Thanks to the people, food, and beaches of Puerto Rico for allowing me to have such a great time! It felt amazing getting to experience the local flair for life, while earning a decent pay doing something that comes naturally...... Now back to the other job that I love! * I have been watching from thousands of miles away as my homeland falls apart, hopefully we can right the ship and move forward towards recovery and reunification soon! Nothing but love in my heart for all of God's creatures, humans included! See you all again soon! @ Aeropuerto Internacional Luis Muñoz Marín - Puerto Rico

My Sunday night is not as fun as I'd like, but my Sunday work day was fun, and I accomplished a lot (especially at my late lunch/early dinner, as you can see). Who would've thought that you could get really good Mexican food in Puerto Rico? I'm taking notes on where to go, where to eat, and where to stay for my return trip. I can tell you this: the @marriottintl... San Juan resort is absolutely fantastic and the staff here deserves a round of applause for how attentive they are and how much they seem to care about their jobs and guest safety. I'd hire them! Stay safe at home! #americanwoodimporters #puravida #gotwood #myotherlife #darksecrets #secretlife #securitywork #worktravel #workharder #alwayshumble #alwaysworking #alwaysaprofessional #greatviews #beachfront #marriott #greatcustomerservice #worldwide #willworkfortravel #hiringveterans #goodfood #imthatguynow @ San Juan, Puerto Rico
