And the storms continue....


This is beach at the end of our road
As you can see it is taking another battering from the winter storms this week



While the wild and wet weather is rather unpleasant, I can't help but wonder what treasures will be washed up, for me to find?



These four creations have new homes, the container ship en route to the UK



Another wreath is now on display and I am working on properly my most involved project to date
Who knew building a castle with 12 towers was sooooo time consuming?
Pictures to come

We're home!

 
A very restful three nights on beautiful Quadra Island
Lucky enough to get out on the sea in Kayaks which was great fun
Arriving back on a driftwood strewn beach, what a result!

Only a small stash of goodies to smuggle back across the border into Campbell River.
 
Happy Man

Woodworking Week

 
Another Etsy order (I know! I can hardly believe it myself)
 
The order started with a boat, got cancelled and changed to a different boat and an adapted version of one of the houses I made. This shape of boat is pretty popular!
Personally I like the taller ships
 
 
 So this order is winging it's way across North America to New Jersey
The addition to the white house was the chopping block
 
I hear the two boats ordered last week have arrived in New York
Waiting for feedback 


 
I managed to get a couple of wreaths made
Not really inspired to think about Christmas just yet
 
 
Walked two beaches on Saturday and it would be inappropriate and rude not to add to my collection of stash, someone else might steal them away!
 

This little gem finally got finished, I had the house, wharf and tree already. The base and addition of the tiny sailboat look kinda cute
 
Long story, but I was at home on Tuesday unexpectedly, so
 
 
wasted no time in putting some of that lovely dry wood to good use and today got these two pieces finished.
