We designed this when we got a new sitting room carpet. We have a large open fire and get through a lot of logs. We always struggled to keep the place clean. A large plastic bucket was the answer and surround it with a strong wrought iron cage painted black to make it look nice!

 

A real candle stick.

I am particularly fond of this piece. My wife asked for a candle stick so that is what I made. The feet and candle supports are made of turned cherry. The base is made of oak into which a stick of Hazel complete with bark is mounted. The drips for the candles are made of copper. No two could ever be the same.

This table has history already. It is a 8' long refectory  table that I made from a Elm tree that once stood in my garden. The tree died and I planked it up and stored it for ten years while I decided what to do with it. In the end I made this table. I didn't have enough elm to make the width so I framed it with English Oak on Oak legs. I made a wrought iron wedge to hold the legs together and my friends have nick name the table the "Nike table" It is cracking right down the joints as it dries out, even after ten years of seasoning. I think it just adds to the character, though maybe not everyone would agree with me.

 

Small Mirror.

We needed a small mirror for the en-suite so I made up this one from a piece of oak with wrought iron mountings. Just because it is hardly ever seen by friends doesn't mean it has to be plain and boring. The problem with mirrors is that the reflection gets older the longer you have them.
