A fairly simple lovespoon compared to my usual ones. Pretty pleased with it tho. I don’t normally go in for generic spoons like this but for a quick yet meaningful gift I think this works pretty well.

So my derby team turned one last week. Happy birthday, North Wales Roller Derby! :D I decided we needed some awards for the team so I came up with these. I’m really pleased with them and my team loved them too.

I was reffing at the Wirral Whipiteres intraleague bout yesterday. At all the bouts I’d been to, I’d only ever seen certificates handed out as bout awards for best jammer, blocker and MVP. These are great but I thought it would be better to have something that you could stick on your mantel piece for everyone to see. I came up with these and they seem to have gone down very well.

I used a very soft, light weight wood for them which, on reflection, wasn’t a great choice as it was very hard to get a smooth finish for painting. If I made them again, I’d use a harder wood so the paint finish wasn’t so fluffy. Pretty happy with them, tho! Derby <3

Made this for the fantastic @katieasays to celebrate her engagement. Always love making things for ace people. Even better when I can give it to them myself :D

Roller Skate Marathon

Sun, 26 Feb 2012 04:23:00 -0500

A week today (4th March) I’ll be skating just over 26miles on quad roller skates in aid of Cancer Research UK. I’ll be doing this along side two other team mates from North Wales Roller Derby. https://www.facebook.com/pages/North-Wales-Roller-Derby/161913623871657

Pleeeease sponsor me what ever you can spare for this. I’m probably going to be suffering a hell of a lot by the end from blisters and the inevitable road rash on my hands and face. Surely that’s worth a fiver? I’m sure everyone reading this has had their lives touched by cancer at some point, either directly or through a friend or loved one. Lets try and make a difference :) Please share this amongst your friends.

Thankyou.

Work in progress. Most of the sanding has been done on this spoon. Just need to give a final fine sanding and engrave the child’s date of birth in the spoon bowl. Really like working with Maple.

Another multi-frame lyric deely done. These seem to be getting pretty popular as I’ve got two more orders for similar frames on the go.

First ‘traditional’ lovespoon I’ve carved in a while. Really pleased with it. Made from Ash and is just over a foot long.

I normally only make bespoke items that are totally personal to the client but I’m not thinking of starting a small sideline in things like this. I know ‘home stores’ like Matalan, Next and Ikea have this sort of thing sewn up so I’m not sure how worth while it would be. Thoughts on a postcard, please.

fashiontipsfromcomicstrips:

Superman hanger, designed by Roman Ficek of Comunistar.

Designer Roman Ficek created this Superman hanger as a conceptual storage piece, allowing civilians to add a subtle superheroic touch to their closet. Unfortunately, the Superman hanger appeared to be available in limited qualities per request, circa 2007.

Perhaps DC Comics will take a cue from Ficek for potential merchandise ideas in 2012?

Really rather pleased with this one. Made as an engagement gift for some friends. It features the Elbow lyrics that they sing to each other every now and then. Aww :)
