... or whisky penetration, I have created functional art by building my chairs, tables and other home decor pieces. Using reclaimed wood and barn wood in my furniture seemed like a natural next step to add to the barrels. The reclaimed wood, barn wood and wood barrels all carry their story in the knicks, scratches and gouges that make them one of a kind and timeless. Live edge wood caught my eye because of the pronounced grain lines and the contradiction between the smooth inside wood and the coarse bark. Using live edge wood in my furniture added to its beauty and timelessness.
Thingsspun represents not only the things I make that spin like my dreidels and yarn bowls but also the thoughts of things to create that spin in my head.
Everyday I challenge myself a little bit more to see how I can mix the materials I love, clay and wood, to create the things you see in my store.
