I love seeing the artistic transformation of some rough wooden stakes, used for landscaping projects, into something so attractive, especially with the colourful help of two enthusiastic helpers!

If you want unique and colourful results, choose the excitement of an under three year old as your new project manager. Much more focussed on noise, fun and energy than the niceties of health and safety and keeping up with the neighbours!

Your beautiful bowl that you made for your Father's 101st birthday is stunning, and I love the 'other worldly' close up photograph of the wood grain of the coaster. I know how tough and heavy the tropical hardwoods are to work with, and I admire your determination and craftmanship. Cutting all the mitres by hand is so impressive.

Some might think that this sign looks a bit scruffy, worn away & not a good look for tourists in New Zealand visiting this South Island paradise. But others would say that the character of rustic reclaimed railway sleepers is absolutely in keeping with ancient forests & wind swept coastlines.

An eye-catching collection of walls and steps that breathe new life into this old station. Building with reclaimed weathered railway sleepers are a wonderful choice as they ooze with historical character and rustic charm.

A gorgeous looking table that will be pride of place for outside meals and drinks with friends. Brilliantly constructed and an incredible transformation from the functional oak railway sleepers you collected from us several months ago. Wonderful.

Of course it's impressive to see the impeccably designed lines of steel, glass & flawless architecture, proclaiming what lies ahead with boldness & imagination. Yet it's also heart warming to see the ancient character of old reclaimed railway sleepers that celebrate both their past yet also welcoming a sustainable future.

Now and again we locate Dutch oak railway sleepers that have come from a tunnel or a well preserved environment. These shorter 2000mm railway sleepers are in excellent condition and a must for exciting garden projects, where you want longevity and character.
