Happy Saturday folks, it's been a while!โ 
โ 
I've recently started full-time work for an amazing local business, although sadly more time focused there means less focus on Woodkin (or at least posting regularly and about what I'm up to!). Happy to say there are a few new items on the way, and plenty more in the pipeline so I will keep working on these and share hopefully very soon. ๐Ÿ˜˜โ

I picked up 7 of these school science desks a couple months back, all in a sorry state and in need of rescuing. Not all of them made it through and in some cases I used the wood for other projects. This one has been completely stripped, planed, finely sanded before being put back together and finished with coat of oil.โ

Should be good for another 30 years now๐Ÿ‘Œโ

Just got wind there's a campaign to turn Dorset and East Devon AONB into a National Park! Wonder what this would mean for our local woodlands?โ

Happy New Year everybody (or should I say happy new tier?) I'm off to play Pirate themed Murder Mystery with the family.

Have a great one ๐Ÿ‘

Hello world! I'm Kate, and this my new venture: Woodkin! It's been a while in the making, I've been working to get everything off the ground before the end of the year and we are almost there.

What a year aye? If there was an award for worst year ever, 2020 would certainly take the crown. No matter how dark the cloud there is always a silver lining. For lucky folk like myself, it has been a chance to take a break from the rat race, explore other avenues, learn new skills and transform lives for the better.

I originally started this account under a different name, . Having left London for Dorset in March before Lockdown pt.1, I set my mind to explore traditional dyeing techniques and grow my foraging skills. So, I spent summer dyeing t-shirts with plants in my garage. In September I was very lucky to be selected for a free course, learning how to build a using sustainable building techniques. Working with wood again ignited something, and since then I haven't stopped creating! I'll be sharing and promoting my creations here, so I hope you love them as much as I do.

Here's to 2021! Let's hope we have a healthy and productive year ahead of us ๐Ÿ˜˜
