Busy weekend

Photographing is so difficult. The sun kept coming out, I was trying to stand on a rocking chair, my hands were covered in plasters, the table had rust marks and my prop selection was hilarious. But we got there..

yew wood (you would)

Celebrating knots

Coasters

This weekend I have been making coasters and trivets from branches, below are laurel and yew

I love yew

Wedding present

 I recently completed a commission for a pair of boards for a wedding present. I was given pretty much freehand, the only catch was that the boards had to be personalised with my freehand pyrography!

I chose to make them from a lovely piece of yew I had been dying to use.
