A gift made from the heart ...

Our woodworking students always give us great joy when it comes to their dedication and persistence.

Bill , a Monday night student has worked tirelessly over the last few months working on a beautiful coffee table for a wonderful surprise birthday present for his wife.

Made from Melaleuca , which is part of the Myrtle tree family this elegant table uses resin as a centre feature to highlight the wonderful warm patina of the grain .

Finished off with light coats of lacquer, this gift made from the heart is one we are sure will be a treasured heirloom for many years to come.

Congratulations to Bill on such a wonderful achievement.

Autumn ...The mellow time

Autumn, you have been a long time coming.

You are officially here but your’e not. The days are still hot and the nights humid.

But , we notice subtle changes …

The light has changed direction

Natives begin to blossom

Days end a little sooner

We are treated to spectacular sunsets

Good days are coming, Autumn in Brisbane really shines !

Its all about the subtle nuances , the slight drop in temperature , shadows cast early in the day.

An ever so slight crispness in the air

The changes are understated , but so very welcome

The finer things ...

Our gallery is taking shape…

With lots of special pieces, where the emphasis is on innovative design and excellence in craftmanship.

Beautiful sunsets...

Some days all the elements are just perfect for a picturesque end to the day.

Colour filled , dramatic sunsets are a wonderful conclusion and a nice little reminder, to stop take a breath and just be for a while.
