New into the Shop

I've been busy of late but have now had a chance to start adding some new stock to the shop at folksy.com why dont you pop in and see at http://folksy.com/shops/woodjewellery

Sorry

Been a bit slack of late. Main reason but no excuse is that I've changed to the big tower PC rather than the laptop. the wife needs to use this bigger PC for her masters and it was too hard to keep going in to the Attic to use it. so after a bit of reorganising of the house. the computer now lives in the dinning room. meaning every ones life is now easier.

My son started school on Friday and life take a whole new turn. i can now work five days a week rather than the old two half days and one full day. We have had to change the way we live to make our lives easier, such as all sitting down to breakfast at 6am in the morning, and trying to keep on top of the laundry etc.

I need to list loads of items into my folksy shop.... have plenty to list just need to do the photos.

Black Heart

I recently created this carved heart in Pink Ivory, the spelting (black) down one side is an interesting feature that I wanted to include, it is approx 75mm long and about 40mm wide and about 13mm thick . I think that my pictures are getting better, and I am trying to get thing to work

New Commission now finished

Iwas given a commission to make a relief carving for a ladies husband's 50th birthday, the task was to create a version of the 80's TV characture Catweazle (not the Wrestler but the TV series).
He's now finished. I'm waiting now to hear from DarkFairyTreasures to list him on Folksy, he Stands about 20cm high, and is carved in beech and walnut.
