My Local Awards. Thanks to everyone who voted for me in the recent local awards event. As a result of your support I am now East Midlands furniture maker of the year 2026. Not quite sure what to do with the accolade but it vindicates what I have been doing since retirement from Pharmacy. Thanks again for the support

He is currently developing a range of goods made from barrel staves these include wh**ky flight boards, wax melt burners, table floor lamps and a range of furniture which is currently at the prototype stage.

Busy making stock for the next event, not sure if I will manage to get everything finished but progress has been good over the last few days.

Come and have a look what Sheila and I have been doing. Along with approx 80 other artists we will have a display at Bonsall open arts running over the weekend of 20th and 21st June. Entry to the show is only £5.00 and if it is anything like previous years it is well worth the money.

My stand is in the garage at 65 Church Street. Jane from silver Silkie will have a display in the house (No 10 on the trail) Would love to see you and have a chat about the new ranges of products we have been developing.

Back home after 4 lovely days at Tissington for the well dressing. Thanks to Annie from Eazicraft in the village who again offered us a space to display the woodwork and although it was quite cold , we managed to chat to loads of lovely people, sold some stock and had suggestions for further developing some of the range of things I make.

To the gent who purchased the barrel stave bar stool, thank you for trusting us with it and even though you had paid us, kindly agreed to leave it with us for display. It is now back home, so please get in touch so we can arrange collection or delivery.

Our next event is the Derbyshire makers bank holiday exhibition starting Sat 23rd at 10 a.m. and running until 4 p.m. on Mon. 25th. We will be at Peak village in Rowsley, so if you have time please come and say hello. If it is anything like last year it will be well worth a visit
