I've just finished making a small batch of my seed boxes with the word "SEEDS" hand carved on the front.
Hopefully these will make ideal Christmas presents for gardeners - although I recommend early ordering as I predict transport issues in the busy lead up. I also can't see me having time to make any more before Christmas so once these are sold chances are it'll be the new year before I have more in stock (that said if they sell fast I might have to find time!).
I find this a great way to practice my carving skills and keep my little business running. If anyone wants to make one themselves then I have just been published in Woodworking Crafts magazine with six pages of instructions on how to make your own! It's a fun project!
Here's a link on where to buy them - Etsy Hand Carved Seed Box
i sure wish you lived in the states! these are awesome!
ReplyDeleteAh thank you! I get so many enquiries from the states about what I make but shipping just costs so much!
DeleteThose are beautiful! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteAh thankyou!
DeleteCongratulations on another publication and well deserved too by the look of it.
ReplyDeleteThank you - Yes I seem to get things published in these magazines quite regularly now which is really nice. Yesterday had two more articles accepted for Woodcarving magazine which was good!
DeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteKev, they're wonderful. I use plastic totes to store my seeds, but a wooden box would be so much better! These should sell very well.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hope they do - should sell well in the run up to Christmas is my plan!
DeleteOh boy, I wish I lived closer. These look fantastic!
