Happy Christmas! We hope that you're keeping well and safe. The Crafty Goose has been in hibernation this year. We have missed teaching our courses. We will be back when it's safe to do so. Keep crafting! Xx

I was wondering what was being crafted in the workshop the other day? Then this Iron bound Mallet with Oak head and Rhododendron handle appeared. There are more to follow!

This mornings thought... I love seeing our shadow board in our workshop. It's made up of tools that belonged to my Dad, my Grandpa (who was a carpenter, Sam would have got on so well with him), many carpenter's that we never got to meet and now they are lovingly looked after and used by us.

The tools on their own do nothing, but in the hands of a patient (willing to learn) person, they can help create what's in the imagination.

We hope to offer our courses soon. If you would like more information, please contact us.

I had my first Blacksmithing course with Sam. I am so proud of what I made, this lovely little hook!

Our diary covers are coming along nicely. The floral pattern is inspired by William Morris Acanthus.

Sam has been building a bass and it's looking wonderful. Can't wait to see it finished :) It's made from Olive Ash, Walnut and Maple. The fret board also has orange lights behind the fret markers.
