Taking Her Craft to the Next Level

This is the story of Carly, a furniture fabricator at Brian Chilton Design in Austin, Texas. Carly loves the functionality behind furniture making, as she gets to apply the same creative principles she learned as a jewelry maker, but on a much larger scale. Although she is the only female fabricator at the company, she doesn’t feel like she’s treated any differently, and instead focuses on where she can go in this field. Watch the video to see her future aspirations, thoughts and advice she would give to someone looking to get into fabrication.

Carly gets to work in her Dickies Women’s Long Sleeve Cotton Coverall, keeping her hands protected from sparks with the Dickies Split Cowhide Leather Palm Gloves.

The Dickies Women’s Duck Carpenter Pants pair perfectly with the Plaid Flannel Shirt to keep Carly both warm and protected. She finishes off her look with the new Women’s Supa Dupa Steel Toe Shoes to protect her feet and have slip resistance in the shop.
