Come and see me this coming week at Cobbs Farm Shop on the A4 between Hungerford and Marlborough. Cobbs have organised a Christmas craft fair with appoximately ten stall holders there last week and another ten (including me) this coming week!
I have around 60 sticks in various shapes and sizes that will make fabulous stocking fillers if you can find a stocking long enough to put them in.
Details of the craft fair can be found here or on the flyer at the bottom of this post.
Recently I have moved my stickmaking activities to a local farm owned by a good freind of mine. I needed more room to store my supplies as well as more room to make more mess!
Here are a few pictures of the processes involved, and some general shots of me making sticks from a recent photo shoot we did at the stickery! Enjoy…
I will have many sticks available soon so please sign up and get Email, Twitter or Facebook alerts when they become available.
Not for the faint hearted this post and apologies for any offence caused.
My sister in law, Sarah breeds a variety of sheep on her farm. When her Balwen Ram was due to go to the wolly cloud in the sky she kept his horns back as she wanted to do something special with them as a momento of his life on the farm.
Sarah asked me if I could fit it to a stick for her to use but with strict instruction not to over do the sanding on the horn as she didn’t want to lose its character. So here is the result of one of the horns – she now uses it daily to help round up his off spring!
If you have the some antler or horn you would like cleaned up and fitted to a stick please do get in touch – I always fancy a challenge!
