DOUGH BOWLS!

We're very busy at the mo buying and renovating (lots of lovely new stuff going on the website AND we’re preparing for the next Open Weekend!). We would like to get some collections of similar beautiful objects going so with this in mind how about some lovely old dough bowls to start with!

WORKSHOP WEATHER!

We love being at our workshop, especially when the sun is shining. And clearly our neighbours at www.touchofginger.com do too….top place for a very important meeting with the suits!

FABULOUS LITTLE FAMILY!

We’re not that big on gnomes but, as the little beardy chaps go, these are proper old ones and a really good weathered colour. We would sell them separately but what a shame to break up the family. Go on...give the cat a fright this spring!

MORE VICTORIAN STUFF!

A cute little Victorian swing top table. Good for very small meals or displays of flowers.

GREETINGS!

Say ‘Hello’ to a freshly finished Victorian painted pine chest. Done up in 1829 hemp beige, with a little distressing and a light wax. Ideal for absorbing huge amounts of clothing!

Just bought this rather sad little vintage toy with a wobbly wheel. We have, of course, named it wonky donkey!

LOOKING FOR THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE!

You were in the workshop on Sunday…she was there, serving customers. You savoured a chocolate brownie…she promised to email you the recipe.

She then put your email address somewhere safe….possibly never to be seen again… If you are the partner of the grandson of Woodbine Willie, then please get in touch, we’ve got that recipe for you!

CHESTS TO CHERISH!

More bread and butter (chests of drawers) arriving at the workshop - four slices in total this last fortnight. Does this make any sense to anyone?!

GORGEOUS GLASS!

More glass storage jars…and if you don't have anything to store or display… well… sod it, they look beautiful empty!

MAKING CHANGES

We spent all of Thursday preparing the workshop and getting displays up (ready for our Open Weekend!!). We have to say, the old place is beginning to look special…

PRECARIOUS PILE

Anyone know what the collective term for a pile of little distressed cupboards is? A wobble? A conspiracy?  Find these, and more, at our Open Weekend!

FOLKSY DRESSER

Dear Readers

We are set to bore you this week with constant reminders of the Homestuff Open Event this weekend. We are going through one last buying spree to get as much interesting gear for your viewing (and hopefully buying) pleasure! To kick off here's a little folksy dresser we’ve found…

THE LIFE OF HOMESTUFF

Mack and Me were taking photos of new things for the website last week. We observed Dan holding this board up for about 10 minutes trying to get a reflection in a mirror to work, while Julia took the shot. Rather reminded me of a scene from 'The Life of Brian'!
