I put my bowl and words commission aside so that I could make stock for Maleny Additions. They are having something like a 'meet the makers' event tonight so I had to make sure that they had enough stock in case folk were overcome and wanted to buy stuff.
It turned out they were short of Leaf Tea Caddy Spoons and Leaf Pate Knives so that is what I have been doing over the last couple of days. Not a bad outcome as you can see from the photo above and below. Swing tags courtesy of Fiona.

I asked if on this occasion MA might like some of my black buffalo horn earrings - so these 6 pair were taken in to test the market.
