Hi All,

I now have a range of display stands/shelves available, these would make great display stands for your own products or for showing off your home décor. Just waiting for my marketing team to take some in action shots 😉 and will update once I have them.

They are all made to order using reclaimed pallet wood and due to the nature of wood, each one will be individual.

Available sizes are standard 2 tier, long 2 tier & 3 tier, can also do single tier if required, finishes pictured are clear matt varnish, Cornish Milk Paint – Sea Glass, and Farrow & Balls - School House White, sanded for that shabby chic/distressed look and feel. If you would like them in a different colour, please don’t hesitate to drop me a message and I’ll see what I can do.

Pricing & Sizes
2 tier (9cm wide, bottom shelf 44cm long, top shelf 40cm) – £12
2 tier long (9cm wide, bottom shelf 60cm long, top shelf 56cm) - £14
3 tier (9cm wide, bottom shelf 40cm long, middle shelf 36cm, top shelf 32cm) - £16

As these are made to order, I can also provide custom sizes if required,

Long overall due post… I have recently been learning and practising Japanese Kumiko (been in the workshop every night for the last 2 weeks)

I find Kumiko a very beautiful artform and an awesome form of carpentry, it takes great patience and precision to make all those pieces of wood join together, all with their different angles and sizes, it must take a life time to perfect… respect to all those who create and study Kumiko/Shoji.

Here are some images of my attempt, I will be continuing to build my Kumiko skills, and will hopefully be able offer various pieces for sale in the future, so that I can continue to fund my woodworking journey. Thanks for looking Jus
