Made from small offcuts of New Zealand native timbers like Rimu, Kauri, and Kahikatea, these spoons are a joy to use and a treat for the eyes. And don’t worry, righties – he makes right-handed spoons too!

I try to minimize my waste across the business in a number of ways. One is by making smaller items from offcut mateials from bigger projects. The result of which is for sale at the The Kaiapoi Arts & Crafts Co-op a couple of doors down from me.

In the lead up to Christmas Dona from Not Just The Red Ones, has set up an art and craft shop. I've joined in the fun and put some smaller items in and will be adding to them as i have time. There's a great selection of local crafters and makers. If your looking for some sweet hand crafted presents then come and check out the shop and say hello, my workshop is right next door.

The Kaiapoi Arts & Craft Co-op is a new craft initiative currently being hosted by Not Just Red Ones - Jewellery in Kaiapoi, New Zealand.

The co-op has been put together to showcase the work of crafters & artists who either live or work (at their craft business) in the Waimakariri district. (North of the Waimakariri River)

The co-op will run through until the week before Christmas 2023, after which a decision will be made about whether to continue into 2024. This will depend entirely on how much support we get from the local community in the lead up to Christmas.

The pop-up currently features the work of 16 members and is almost at capacity but if it continues beyond Christmas we will be looking at ways to include as many local crafters as possible.

Enquiries are welcome.

Here's a quick little time-lapse of some hand-shaping work where the bed end rail and side rail meet. This is for a floating bed I designed and made recently.

Small cabinet big clamps! The length of the cabinet required me to get out my longest clamps for the glue up. These things are massive compared to most clamps. I have to be careful when using them as it is very easy to apply way too much pressure.
