OldWoodNew.Gifts

Here at oldwoodnew we refuse to use new wood or materials for any of our stock and projects.

There is an endless, massive, supply of amazing resources out there for everyone to reuse , upcycle and recycle. All we have to do is go find and use them!

For 20 years I have been collecting discarded wood from all sorts of places: skips, window replacement companies, wood yards and recycling centres and many more.

Recently I have been making gifts and items for friends and family, realising that there is something special and unique about turning something that was previously unwanted into a gift for someone you care about! You may know someone who would love a gift with a story behind it - particularly if it's environmentally friendly too!!

We not only use wood but also other materials and items that may have ended up on a bonfire or at the bottom of someone's garden; things like old metal bench ends and the old oak slats that lie with it!

On these pages we hope to show you a few of our ongoing projects, items that are finished and available for you to buy, illustrations of how we made some of them and maybe you have some ideas of your own. We also welcome donations of wood. Just get in touch any time using the form or call us.
