Unusual requests

This has got to be my most unusual request from a customer. We were fortunate to work with a very lovely client with a beautiful holiday cottage in our area. One day she came into our showroom with her husband who had a large sticking plaster on his head.  She had a request, for us to make a removable, cleanable, padded cover to cover a beam that was in a very tricky position at the top of the stairs.  Most people had learned to duck but her husband was quiet tall and had collided with the beam on a number of occasions, the latest being that morning. The following pictures show the solution !
