The sound of mediaeval spoons

This is a first for me 

using a mediaeval spoon shape from the Mary Rose 

made from olive wood - pruned from my backyard

local, sustainable and recycling at its best

best of all its a present

now winging its way back to the original land from whence the design came from

The Sound of Hooves

Felt and up cycled material for little horses

 presents for little girls

more gifts from Shipwrights Cottage

from a year of home made presents

The sound of beeswax

Spoon number 8 

Eucalyptus, oiled with orange oil and beeswax 

The sound of banana stems twisting

Basket making is addictive 

This one is from mulberry and quince tree prunings for the ribs

Banana stems for the weave

It's a present

I'm on a mission to only make presents this year 

Another spoon

For a present
another mulberry spoon
i haven't been making them for a while
looking forward to swinging an axe again soon

The sound of collecting eggs

The basket is done

The egg collector is happy 

The sound of wood chips

A pruned mulberry tree

some time

an axe

a knife 

and then some spoons

given as presents to friends

and family

and a stranger in the USA
