Tree of Life made from 1000 year old English Bog Oak! This pendant is made from a piece of petrified English bog oak that emerged from a peat marsh in Lakeland Cumbria. Although the timber has never been officially carbon dated it has become totally jet black, a process that takes well over 1000 years before the oak is completely impregnated and stained by the dark peaty waters of a marsh.

I have been carving wood and making jewellery for over 20 years now and although I like to think my own skill makes this a beautiful unique item, it's the millennium or so it has spent resting under the ground that makes it truly remarkable. For some reason I am finding myself making a lot of little Tree of Life's at the moment, using up lots of interesting, smaller pieces of wood that I've had lying around my workshop. Quite satisfying, just thought I'd share!

Congratulations to Lisa Scudieri who won our magical garden competition. This daisy pendant is made from reclaimed pitch pine. The old beam the wood was taken from is a original roof truss in the building and is over 350 years old, but now the timber has been dusted off and cut afresh it has come up as good as new revealing the rich grains that have been hidden for so long. On it's way to you in the post today Lisa!

These mushrooms have been popular lately, what with everyone having the time in their gardens to design little magical spaces. I'd love to see some posts showing what new spaces people have created in their gardens and can offer a little surprise prize to whoever's is most impressive! Especially if it involves some creative wood craft!
