In June 2009 I moved my workshop from Eskdalemuir and am now based at Newbattle Abbey, on the south side of Edinburgh. You are welcome to visit the workshop but please phone beforehand.
The Wych Elm Project.www.wychelmproject.org
Unfortunately in 2003 one Scotland’s largest and best loved trees had to be felled at the Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh. The Wych Elm Project was set up to highlight the plight of our native elms by inviting you to own a piece of furniture, art or craft from this majestic tree. The project resulted in me creating The Wych Elm Table. This table and all the other pieces created from this amazing tree are currently on display in the Royal Botanic Gardens new building. The John Hope Gateway. The exhibition will run until Febuary 2010.
The Scottish Furniture Makers have
a brand new website which details most of Scotland’s furniture makers
and now includes a sales room if you just cannot wait for a commissioned
piece. www.scottishfurnituremakers.org.uk
