The craft shelf at Cross Keys Mews in St. Neots officially opened today! My six shelves are fully stocked (you can see the middle six shelves in the first picture). I took a stroll around to check out the other crafters’ displays and had to resist the urge to make any purchases before selling my own items! 😂 There’s still some space available, so if you’re a crafter, consider heading to the Craft Shelf page on Facebook. It’s quite simple to apply if you’re interested in renting a shelf or two.

I am thrilled to share that I have secured shelf space for my charcuterie and other carpentry products in a new shop set to open soon in a prime location on St Neots High Street. I visited the shop today, and it promises to look fantastic, featuring a variety of talented makers showcasing their unique homemade crafts. Go give the craft shelf a follow for the latest updates

Wall key holder: There’s still a mountain of work to climb before I’m happy with this piece, but hey, it’s getting there! I took a stab at painting them, and let’s just say it looked more like art gone rogue. Clearly, my painting skills are still in the “training wheels” phase—who knew splatter art wasn’t the goal? Way to embarrassing to share on here 😂

I discovered a method for utilizing leftover off-cuts, and I have finished the first batch of key rings. The profits from these will be donated to the Mind charity. If they sell well, I’ll continue producing more to sustain the initiative.

First 3 end grain cutting boards added to the shop. End-grain cutting boards offer several advantages, including being kinder to knife edges, lasting longer, and having a self-healing property. They are more durable and resistant to damage than edge-grain boards. 

Key Benefits of End-Grain Cutting Boards: 
Knife-Friendly:
The vertical wood fibers in end-grain boards separate as the knife cuts down, allowing the blade to slice between them rather than across them. This reduces friction and damage to the knife’s edge, keeping knives sharper for longer. 
Durability and Longevity:
End-grain boards are known for their durability due to the vertical wood fibers being more resistant to impact and wear. They are also less prone to knife marks, making them a long-term investment. 
Hygienic:
The close-packed fibers in end-grain boards can be more easily cleaned and sanitized, reducing the risk of bacteria growth.
