Leah, a very good friend of That's Christmas, has asked us to promote her Dad's business and we are pleased and proud to be able to do this.
Stephen Watson, of Watson Woodworks which is based in Norfolk, handcrafts sustainable chopping boards, musical instruments and bespoke items all using carefully selected and expertly reworked reclaimed wood.
It's a true must-have accessory for the cooks in your life.
It's crafted with high-quality mixed hardwoods and is ideal for both preparing and serving food.
The intricate patterning is a genuine "wow!" factor and will really make a good impact in the kitchen of the recipient and will really impress their guests.
It's smart, rectangular design and colours means it will fit in with just about any kitchen decor or style.
The size is 46 x 30 x 3cm and it will cost £130.
If so, this unique gift will certainly give them something to liven the mood a little bit. It's a gorgeous Mini Crazy Grain Shaker.
Small enough to easily fit in the hand, they are made using a combination of hard and soft woods. Each one is filled with 40 ball bearings giving a delightfully woody sound when they are shaken. A real fun stocking filler and a present that will really make a wonderful sound if the lucky recipient shakes their parcel, in the traditional way employed by people trying to work out what their Christmas present might be!
Size is about 4cm square by 6cm tall and they'll cost £20.
They not only look fantastic but the raised edges really help you to get the goodies out into the garden without too much fuss!
They are carefully crafted using only high quality and very durable materials which are ideal for our eclectic (or eccentric?) British weather, being made from weather-resistant materials.
They are designed to withstand the elements, whilst at the same time adding more than a touch of elegance to your conservatory or your outdoor garden space.
The hexagon shape will provide the recipient of this gift a look that is both unique and modern, yet without being too much, if you know what I mean.
Looking after your pot of tea, keeping your cocktails safe, or holding your BBQ snacks in a tidy, orderly fashion they are a genuine must have accessory for the person who loves to make the most of their garden space.
There are two designs, oak rustic or red cedar look. The red look ones are a bit smaller at about 21”.
These amazing, handcrafted genuinely one of a kind Cajons are crafted using many different colours of hardwoods and softwoods.
They come with a fully adjustable snare system so that they'll be able to achieve a natural box sound with the snares off, and also set to a loose snare for a Jazz mode and a tight snare for a normal feel.
There's also a clever damper system so that the snares don't rattle when the snares are set to be completely off for that natural box sound.
The cost is £230 and to see and hear Stephen demonstrating this, please have a look and a listen here:-https://www.watsonwoodworks.co.uk/musical-cajon
