Hi, I’m Kaushi (she/her), the proprietor of Upcycled Wood. The phonetic spelling of my name is (Cow-shi).
I’ve always had a knack for revamping and reviving things. Amongst all, furniture reviving gives me the most pleasure. After working in the corporate world for over two decades, I have turned to giving old wooden furniture new life.
