This site is dedicated to providing you with the opportunity of buying hand turned wooden items. Everything I make is made with great care to create a product that will give years of practical use and pleasure to the senses. Each item is unique, even if made to the same design and from the same piece of wood, the grain will be different, and is signed with my heart logo, numbered and recorded.
Unlike most manufactured products, wooden products need to be handled to be appreciated. The patterns created by the grain, heart and sapwood create a pleasing mix which is both beautiful and useful.
I make a range of products like practical bowls for fruit, nibbles or pot pourri, loose change pots, candle holders, fragrance pots, dried flower vases and pots with lids to save your money in or to store your precious trinkets . . . . and anything else that my imagination can create with a piece of reclaimed wood on the lathe and a few sharp tools; all my friends and acquaintances know I’m always on the lookout for fallen trees!

These hand turned products make the perfect accessory for any home and are ideal for Christmas, Birthday, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Christening and ‘Thank-you’ gifts.
I have been turning wood since 2001 when a friend bought a small lathe from an auction, just because it was cheap and to sell on … to cut a long story short, my husband bought it for me as a Christmas present and very quickly I was hooked!
Eventually, after lots of breakdowns of that particular lathe, my husband bought me an Axminster 940 lathe, he lost a shed and I gained a deeply satisfying hobby.
I have always had an appreciation for creating things from wood as I grew up with my father whittling and making various things from wood and then I discovered that my Great Grandfather used to be the woodsman at Petworth House and worked with the great Capability Brown. So it must be in my blood!!
Now I have a new string to my bow. I created this web site myself so I would be grateful for any feedback on the site (please be kind even if you’re not impressed!)
