Merry Christmas everyone!
#festivelondon
We had a great time at @renegadecraft this weekend! Nice to be out of the workshop saying hello to people. So many talented #makers with beautiful work. We still have a few pieces left. πŸŽπŸŽ…πŸΌπŸŽ„ To guarantee Xmas delivery, orders must be placed by MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13TH! β˜ƒοΈβ„οΈ
My studio mate @swellpress and I playing about with the portrait mode on her new phone. It’s fancy and yes I do look a bit like #Tintin today πŸ™„
Super excited for @renegadecraft this weekend in #dtla. We’ll be selling our new Sawyer Collection cutting and serving boards and sharing a booth with the lovely and talented @funsizeceramics. Come say hello, check out all the great makers and do some holiday shopping! πŸ™‚
Measure twice, cut once. Squeezing in some more cutting and serving boards for holiday orders and @renegadecraft this weekend. Listening to some @mbekcrw on the safety headphones. Good times πŸ™‚
Loving the stripes in this vertical grain Douglas fir. Anyone who knows me knows I love me some stripes. Wood grain, shirts, socks, tabby cats, it's all stripey goodness.
SHOP UPDATE! ⚑️ Look at that stunning cherry grain! Absolutely in love with these gorgeous long cherry cheese boards with inset leather handle. Available now at my shop, along with other fab pieces. Link in profile.
Playing with colours. Photo shoot day.
Walnut, walnut, wonderful walnut. Time to turn this lovely stuff into some even lovelier stuff. Working on lots of fun bits and bobs for the holidays. Shop update soon. 
Also super excited to be a part of the #renegadecraftfair Dec 9 & 10 in #dtla 
Come on out and say hello πŸ™‚
New line of cheese boards almost complete. Lined up and waiting to be oiled. Might be a tad ocd about symmetry ☺️
Please enjoy my intense chisel concentration face as I work on some new styles of cutting and servings boards. More pics and info soon! πŸ™‚
"E.T. phone home." Cutting board E.T. is back! β˜ΊοΈπŸ‘½
Pretty walnut everywhere. Putting together some fun stuff for the holidays
This little lamp ended up being one of my favourite pieces at the ranch house project. It totally completed the space. Now I want one for every room of my own place. Absolutely love it! Thanks to the always lovely @janaturner and @okthestore for hooking me up πŸ™‚
Before and after shots of the ranch house project. This has been such a fun and rewarding job. I loved seeing the space transformed... but I didn't love meeting my first, second and third real life rattlesnakes. 🐍😬
Quality control inspector is here. She's got a reputation as being a bit of a nitpicker. Fingers crossed all the work is up to scratch! 😺
We made it to New Mexico and it is spectacular! Crazy long drive from LA but now I'm just taking in the scenery and enjoying a well earned break. I'll set to work tomorrow installing all the pieces. Can't wait to see everything together πŸ™‚
Loading day! Excited to drive this beast to NM and install all the pieces I've been busily working on for the past 8 weeks πŸšπŸœπŸ™‚
Tasty joinery and dusty boots
Petite dining table glue up. This thing is so darn cute! Lower rails are just spacers for the glue up and will be removed afterwards

THE RANCH HOUSE PROJECT: THE PACK UP!

October 10, 2017 in BEHIND THE SCENES, FURNITURE

Getting ready a 12 hour drive to a New Mexico ranch to install all the custom pieces I've been making for the past 8 weeks. Can I fit a platform bed frame with underside drawers, a dining table, a desk, a file system, a shelving system and all the tools I'll need to install them into this small cargo van? We'll find out shortly!
