Hi, I’m Cynthia Holland owner of Cindy Wood Designs. I am married to my wonderful husband Darrell Holland and mother of two amazing young men. I was born and raised in Queens, New York and moved to North Carolina in 2004. While I miss the diverse foods and arts from the city, North Carolina is where my heart is.
After buying my first home, I wanted to find unique furniture pieces and “accidentally” came across a refinished furniture store. I am a believer of second chances and see the beauty beyond the surface of things as God sees us. The idea in giving new life to old outdated furniture fascinated me. For years I watched YouTube videos of other individuals flipping furniture and wished I could do the same. I bought a few pieces and paint. I figured this could be a cool hobby but never thought it would turn into a business. Until I finished my first piece and hubby said “Hey that turned out great you should put it for sale”. So I did and it sold in two days! It was the moment I knew I found a hidden talent! I went from painting 2-3 pieces a week and when I couldn’t keep up with the demand, I hired and trained help.
It's never to late to start new hobbies or interest. You never know where life will take you!
