Hello and welcome!  My name is Brandy, I am a 2026 graduate of the Camosun College Fine Furniture/Joinery Foundations program.  After 20+ years in the veterinary industry, I decided I needed a creative outlet that allows me to work with my hands, create beautiful pieces from real wood, and occasionally smack something with a mallet.

​

​

My Ethos:

I want to build pieces that showcase the beauty of wood and wouldn't look out of place in nature.  I believe in using wood that is local as much as possible, as well as reclaiming/reusing/repurposing pieces that still have a ton of life left in them.  I'm a big fan of Mother Nature, and I strongly believe that humankind has a responsibility to "do no harm", or as little harm as possible.  To that end, my indoor pieces get environmentally friendly finishes such as hardwax oil (eg: Osmo, Tried and True) or a beeswax/oil combo.  This means the wood will need yearly maintenance, but the beautiful finish is worth the effort.  My outdoor pieces, such as bird/owl/bat houses, are generally made with untreated cedar with no exterior finish.  It will eventually rot, degrade, and decompose, and that is as it should be.

​

My Work:

I intend to offer a variety of handmade, real wood pieces:  indoor and outdoor furniture and smaller gift items such as page holders, soap dishes, or coasters.  I am also very open to collaborating with clients to bring their dream projects to fruition.  Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss the possibilities!
