Under the Sycamores

31/08/2026

Spooky season is creeping into the workshop 👻🎃🕯️

Fraser’s been busy turning these little wooden Halloween candles ready for our autumn markets, each one finished with its own spooky character. I absolutely love how much personality they have 😂

Handmade from wood, a little bit quirky and definitely not your average autumn decoration 🍂

Which one would you pick? 👻🖤

Another beautiful piece from Fraser’s workshop 🤎✨

Hand-turned wood, stunning grain and those little brass details… this one feels like something you’d discover in an old treasure chest. 😍

From a simple piece of timber to something completely unique — all handmade here in Yorkshire 🌳

Would you keep this for yourself or gift it? 👀
