CRAFT WORKSHOP

 

Converted from an old piggery in one of our outbuildings, my workshop is compact, niche and often shared by some of our family friendly pets. It's here where I spend time designing and crafting  an item from initial concept to finished item.

With each cask being able to tell its own story, every piece made is unique.

 

Many of my crafts are commissions but I also produce items for a commercial outlet in Elgin and some items are available direct from our online shop.
 

The pieces I produce are competitively priced and I only charge what I would be willing to pay myself. I put in many hours to get the item just right, but I don't charge per hour. Taking pride in my work, I provide a quote and stick to it, no matter how long it may take.
