    Default Rustic Camphor Laurel Dishes

    With Christmas coming up and all, the Crafty ladies in my building at work ran another Craft Sale yesterday. I had one box, one miniature chest of drawers (both my work), some leather work, a few small tealight holders and bowls that I've collected over the years from the woodshows (not my work and sold as such) and some rustic Camphor Laurel dishes.

    Was a fun sale The little things went very quickly, as they do. The chest of drawers sold later that day, but the best surprise was an order for another one in Sheoak Neat

    So, here's the pictures of the CL dishes, the leather work and the chest of drawers.

    Cheers
    Wendy

    Looks good Wendy, why not combine some leather work with your woodwork... a leather inlay would look quite fancy on the top of the miniature chest of draws

    Those croc style pads look great Wendy.

    Hmm, do I need another one , for the toilet maybe . Perhaps you'll need a cheese cutter or pie server some time after Xmas

    Thanks Guys

    Neil - the big Croc-ish one could be a one-off, but I'm going to do my best to chase down some more


    cheers

    Well done.

    Your chest of drawers will look very nice in Sheoak.
    Another project - you did have a good day.

    Thumbs up

    All good Wendy! You are indeed multiskilled. How´s your cooking!

    Plenty of CL heer WoodWad. It´s a noxious weed. Perhaps you could migrate and have access to as much as you wish.!

    Sometimes I do, Donna, most times I just try to keep a few pictures. I've pretty much run out of room though at present That's when I give my Family some of my pieces so I have more room, but my 'good pieces' that I want to keep are still nearby. Besides, my Dad loves having a few of pieces rotating through his 'Display' area at home

    cheers

    Great to see you still churning out quality work, Wendy! Love the leatherwork, too! The small chest of drawers in Sheoak will sure be a stunner!

    Cheers,

    Jill

    Received a mystery package in the mail today, hmm haven't ordered anything that I know of, then I saw the poststamp was from Toowomba and hmm that feels like a Ruffly leather bound note book, so imagine my surprise when I open it and it's the croc one in the top right corner from the the first post that has Sold on it

    Thanks Wendy, much appreciated and bought a smile to my face

    Hope you enjoy my mystery parcel, that you'll hopefully get by the end of the week, it has been wrapped and will be posted by my Mum tomorrow hopefully seeing that I keep forgetting to pick it up
    Cheers
