Wood Glow Designs…
“My name is Matt and I started Wood Glow Designs at the start of 2020. I work from a small workshop in the Cambridgeshire ‘fens’ and make bespoke handmade lamps and other household items from locally sourced timber using traditional woodworking techniques. I have family connections to the famous whisky trail in Scotland and many of my creations are made using Whiskey barrels and staves.”
Driftwood Lamp #1
The wood for this lamp was found washed up after a storm on Spey Bay in Aberdeenshire Scotland. The base is made from a solid spalted Ash live edge slab that was sourced from the Thetford Forest area. Both the base and the upright are finished in a beautiful gloss lacquer which reflects the warm light of the bulb. It features a decorative brown natural linen cable, bronze lamp holder and stunning large globe bulb. Price: £200

It features a decorative brown natural linen cable, bronze lamp holder and stunning large globe bulb. Price: £200
Table Lamp #1
This beautiful little table lamp features a stunning spalted Beech base that has an almost coffee swirl effect to it. The upright is made from Meranti and features an angled half lap wood joint, made using traditional woodworking techniques and tools. A simple Burgundy cable complements the wood perfectly, with a brass lamp fitting and radio valve bulb. Price: £120
Whiskey Stave table lamp
I have family connections to the famous whiskey trail in Aberdeenshire, Scotland which is where I source all my whiskey staves from. This lamp is made from one stave and features a traditional half lap wood joint. I have tried to leave as much character of the stave as possible so the years of wear and tear are still visible through the smooth finish. The upside of the stave has a beautiful deep red colour which is due to the staining of the alcohol (Only the finest single malts are aged in Sherry barrels which gives this stave its unique colour). Finished with a rope cable, brass lamp fitting and large globe bulb. Price: £150
Jutelicious Creations…
“My name is Ervie, I have been crafting since September 2019. I was sorting out my recyclable waste on day in the summer, when I realise that we do throw away an awful lot of things, so I thought: why not reusing those in an effective and artistic way. The project sounded good as it was going to allow me to reduce the amount of waste going in the natural environment but also it was going to be a great way to use my artistic skills to transform waste into a unique crafted creation. Each piece created is based on waste materials which is worked with jute rope or other ropes. Several technic are used such as weaving,crocheting, macrame and more. Natural elements are also used such as dry flowers, small tree sticks,shells,stones and more, in order to create authentic and natural looks to the creations. Each creation is fully handmade and designed by myself.
All my creations go under Jutelicious Creations.
