This is not another creepie!! (But I have still given it the number 17 because it is in my creepie-style). It is actually a bench...

Wedding Creepie (#16)
In the summer I had a lovely wee commission to make a creepie to be gifted as a wedding present. The customer had been on holiday to Orkney and had come across creepies there. Then, having returned to the mainland, they came across my website and asked me to make a custom creepie.

“Chaffinch” Bedside Cabinet (#2)
I first made a "Chaffinch" cabinet about 3 years ago, so it was nice to revisit the design and make some alterations for a new bedside cabinet. What changed?

Olive Ash and Mahogany Stripe Creepie (#12)
The second of two olive ash and reclaimed mahogany creepies that were made specially for the Glenkinchie Distillery Christmas Fayre. This one is two staves of olive ash with a mahogany stave sandwiched between, and mahogany skirts.

Olive Ash and Mahogany Creepie (#11)
With the Glenkinchie Distillery Christmas Fayre on the horizon, I finally was able to use up some of my olive ash offcuts to make more creepies. I was also gifted some old mahogany tables from which I was able to reclaim some lovely coloured pieces that I could use for the skirts.

The “Snipe” Office Furniture Suite
Just a final post showing the three pieces of the "Snipe" office furniture suite gathered together. You get a better idea of scale and positioning to see the filing cabinet and sideboard sitting either side of the corner desk.

The “Snipe” Sideboard
My "Snipe" sideboard. Continuing the design cues from the filing cabinet - cut-away drawer pulls and walnut highlights - and adding asymmetric freeform slatted doors with offset handles. Everyone in the workshop loved it.

The “Snipe” Corner Desk
My brief was to create some furniture home office. The client already had in mind a corner desk but we went on to explore some typical rectangular desk designs before settling on a small suite comprising a filing cabinet, corner desk and sideboard. This is the corner desk.

Another Chocolate Creepie Please (#6)
Commissioned as a 5th “Wooden” Wedding Anniversary gift, I was asked to make a creepie using my Scottish olive ash and walnut using some of my previous design elements, and so I decided to do another chocolate creepie.

“Hen Harrier” Footstool – 1970s style?
A footstool in my olive ash with upholstered cushion on top. I wanted to keep the 'legs' quite wide to show off the grain patterning in the olive ash and the result is that the stool has ended up looking very 1970s.

The “Eider” Sofa Table
What is a sofa table? Well, it's a wee table that aims to slide in beside you when you are sitting on the sofa to give you somewhere flat to put your mug. No more trying to balance your mug on the cushion next to you! No more biscuits sliding off your plate!

The “Birdcage” Coffee Table
During the making of the latticework for the legs of the Buzzard console table, I happened to have them lying on their sides, and I thought to myself that with a top they would make a nice coffee table. And that's the origin of the "Birdcage" Coffee Table.
