Yay for Friday One-Offs!

#FridayOneOffs

I've been making and producing products now for the past couple of years. For the most part, I am normally making the same type of product, and things can get repetitive. To keep things mixed up around here, I try to experiment with new materials or create new products every couple of weeks. These pieces if they don't go into production (for cost or resource reasons) end lost in the abyss that is my studio and never see the light of day! So instead of keeping them all to myself I am now offering them on my instagram on Fridays for under $50! They can be something I never have made before to a piece I normally sell but the dimensions are wrong and I can't sell them at full price. Each one no matter what is unique and one of a kind. I felt like it is something fun to offer all my followers before the weekend starts (especially if they need a last min gift!).

Mini Black Cork planter was an experimentation for this new cork. Sold him for $45.

It's been two weeks so far and I have gotten a great response! So keep your eye's peeled for the next Friday one-off on my Instagram, maybe you can find a gem in my mayhem!

First #FridayOneOffs was a buckeye burl vase that was a little too tiny. Sold him for $45!
