Thank you for visiting Our Dad’s Workshop. Our family has been in the manufacturing and design business for three generations and we Carr girl’s will make it the fourth generation. We are continuing that tradition of excellence by offering you unique and charming items for your home.

A little about how we got here. In March of 1945, Our Great-grandfather Vernon Lester Carr started V.L. Carr & Son Pattern Co. in an old metal shop behind his house in Los Angeles, California. Since then our Grandfather and father have continued the business eventually focusing on products for accessories for trucks, Jeeps and SUVs. You may see those products at www.carr.com. Today, CARR, as it is popularly known, is in virtually every major warehouse across the United States and Canada, and has established itself as a company whose accessories place it among the major competitors in the industry. While working as the primary pattern maker for CARR over the years our Dad also occasionally made gifts items for our Mom as well as other family members and friends. We have gathered together those designs to build Our Dad’s Workshop and are excited to now make them available to you!

As fourth generation Carrs and sisters, we both play a role with the designing of the products, the content on this site and other aspects of this business. When you buy from us you are buying factory direct. We are the originators of the MDW line. We are strong believers in hassle free customer service. If you contact us we will take care of you.
