Wishing you all a peaceful day on this beautiful crisp morning. Display curtesy of our neighbours wonderful lighthouse, (Our Christmas Lighthouse on Facebook) and one of my favourite actors is thrown in at the end. I might have to watch "It's a wonderful life" tomorrow...

Pair of asymmetrical drum lampshades, a commission for an Interior Designer with a very distinctive style. Sadly things changed and they're looking for a new home, so we'll be putting them in our shop. Hope someone likes them, they're big, over 1' tall and almost 2' diameter!

Final harvest of the season, cabbage, sweet potatoes, (first time ever!) Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes. Okay, they're all a bit wonky, but they're OUR wonky veg!

So this just appeared in our village, James "Bond Avenue". It's one of six similar in the area, Paul "Newmans Lane" is just up the road too. They're all real road names and some clever person has organised this to raise funds for "young lives vs cancer" charity. @Bournemouthecho

The five foot long Danish bench is finished!! 🥳 Nice to use black Danish cord for a change, good contrast to the oak frame.

New arrivals in the workshop. A huge 5' long mid-century Danish bench and a lovely Cotswold School rush seated stool. I discovered something really unusual about the Danish bench. Have a look, see if you can spot it from the photo - I didn't until I saw it "in the flesh"!!

Tiny chair. Seat woven in the continental pattern which is a bit of a fiddle on something so small. For once it's a sunny finished on Friday.

Storm Isha has arrived. We had a walk along Branksome beach a couple of hours ago, the wind was having fun with the kite surfers!!

One of the first jobs finished in 2024. Danish cord and lapping cane stool seat. A gentle reintroduction to work on these cold but beautifully bright days.

Finished by Tim on a very sunny Friday, a child's high/low chair. Can you imagine a chair like this being made for a child today....? 🤔
