� A little bit about Art of the Forest

All of our pieces are designed and created by hand by Jon Langford with background assistance from his lovely wife. We work hard to source sustainable materials and packaging for our products to reduce our environmental impact. Wherever possible we will also reuse packaging from items we receive to send out our orders.

Thanks to a local new client finding us through our google account we have a new challenge.
This week we have this lovely carved rubberwood bear which had been ordered for a special occasion from a company on etsy, sadly once it arived they found the personalised engraving had a spelling mistake.
so now i have the challenge of sanding their engraving off and removing as little wood as possible while also keeping the base level and the shape of the carving consistent so that i can correctly engrave it then finish it off with matching coats of lacquer so it looks as good as new.
