Welcome to

Looking for unique gifts for that special person? Look no further.
A variety of unique wooden crafted projects awaits you. From jewelry cabinets to tea boxes, to curvy boxes, including Mah-Jong cases.
Rarely will there be two projects exactly crafted the same. A variety of solid exotic wood species, from local woods to woods from all over the world are selected to bring about a certain "cachet" for each item designed.
I am a retired school teacher/Vice Principal who has loved working with wood for ages. I chose Nanaimo as my new residence on my retirement in 2012. As a BC wood artisan my passion is creating and crafting wood projects using local BC woods as well as many exotic woods from all over the world.
French Marquetry is my new passion.
