This was supposed to be a container for our kitchen utensils, but the shape’s not what I wanted & it’s a bit too heavy, so I gave it the Ancient Roman treatment. I guess you could store your gladii in it.

Bit of an experiment with this one. Tea jar? Flour container? It’s very pale ash, and you can see the grain in good light.

We have business cards now! I’m so excited!

The orange vase, turned and stained by Scott, deserved a second look in better lighting. Stain on Dunoon birch.

This is one of Scott’s creations, from start to finish including the paint job. I think he did an excellent job.

Different lighting makes for different coloring. This little sycamore plum jar flashes.

More shot glasses. Sometimes I choose to paint the insides, sometimes I make a mess and am forced to do so.

Sycamore tea jars we made recently! I nicked one similar to these for our kitchen.

More plum jars! They’re all sycamore. It’s a pity the camera can’t catch the grain-flash of the green one. Hubs sanded and polished it to a high sheen.

Proof that lighting makes all the difference. One of our sycamore plum jars, painted rather effusively by me.

More of our recent batch, created from wood we sustainably harvest ourselves here in Scotland. Most are painted by me, but the blue and orange vases were stained by Scott.

This is a piece we’re both proud of. I recreated a previous paint scheme I did a few years ago and here it is on a sycamore vase turned and lacquered by Scott.

More shot glasses turned from locally, sustainably sourced beech here in Scotland.

Another shot glass! These are made with alcohol-safe, food-grade lacquer. Paint job by me. Beech.

Shiny shot glass without a nice soundtrack. Sycamore with a little… a whole lotta… flair. What can I say, my inner eighties kid loves sparkles.

Here’s a little thing we call a plum jar, good for holding a ton of garlic or ginger, or a bunch of shiny river rocks. It’s ash, and ten-year-old me would’ve been appalled by the pink.
