Welsh love spoons have been given as love tokens since the 17th century. Using my own designs, I carve traditional and unique love spoons out of lime: an indigenous species used for centuries for wood carving.
Choose a design from my love spoon gallery or have a love spoon individually commissioned for a special occaision. When designing love spoons I like to make them personal to you, so as well as the more traditional symbols I can include unusual ideas to make your love spoon a unique and special gift to treasure forever. My love spoons are sent worldwide with many going to the USA, Australia and Canada as well as the UK. I have been carving love spoons for over 15 years, a craft that I learned from my father.
Order or commission a love spoon for a summer wedding, anniversary or birthday and give a truly unique gift.
Besom making is a seasonal job: I spend summer making besom brooms at shows and in frost and cold of winter I gather the materials - birch and hazel - ready for the following year. Besoms are the ideal brush for all your garden needs.
I turn wooden pendants and earrings from a range of interesting woods.
