| Recreating the past
If you don't know Tim Peterson, you should stop by Peterson's Furniture and get acquainted. He is a quiet and unassuming man but he knows his furniture. And well he should- he has been in the business all his life. His father has been in the antique and refinishing business in Andalusia for 45 years and he grew up helping and learning how to find and refinish fine pieces from the time he was a young boy. “My dad opened his own shop right after he finished high school in 1962," Peterson said. “So I grew up learning about antiques and good reproductions." For a few years after he finished high school, Peterson tried doing other things while he and his wife were in Mobile. But when he broke his wrist and couldn't work, he went back to what he knew best.
