The Idea
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want a unique gift for someone special. Maybe you want a beautiful piece of bespoke furniture to fit your individual style. Whether it is a small box, or a piece of furniture, I’d love to hear about your idea.
The Design
Once you get in touch, we can work together to bring your idea to life. We’ll start with a consultation, and then I’ll get to work on the design. At every point, I’ll check to make sure it’s still in keeping with what you want.
The Making
Once we’ve designed something that we’re both happy with, it’s time for the making.
All of my products are made by me personally in my workshop in rural County Antrim. On occassion I call upon the skills of other local craftspeople to help with the project. The timescale for this will vary hugely depending on the project, so do get in touch if you have questions about that.
