Finished! Stripped, sanded and then finished with pure leatherwood beeswax, applied with polissoir and buffed with bits of my old dressing gown. Swipe for the before. @ Lauderdale, Tasmania, Australia

How do I not get out here more often?! I’ll swap mindfulness for sanding 9/10 times!

All done bar the handles - lime washed heavy pine desk, finished with my first batch of paste wax made from Wellington Apiary leatherwood beeswax made in the kitchen. Second pic shows the liming in process, and third pic is the before. This is a commissioned piece, very different to what I usually do - which makes it fun! Again, thank you for your help and company ❤️

There’s a bit going on ...
Last weekend I married my darling man in what was truly the most heartfelt, joyous occasion of my life. (Amazing photo by )
Just a few days later and I started a new full time office job.
It means I’ll only have weekends for the workshop for a while... but, with so many projects in train or still to start, stand by for updates on progress!

By hand is wonderful.
Four friends, one bride (me 😱😊❤️), three of my closest friends and a vat of indigo at for the most satisfying and rewarding creative experience.

The restoration journey is awesome, especially when you get quite dramatic before and afters. Swipe through the pics to see the transformation.
