Never too late to gain some new perspective with the business side of things. Been having a real struggle getting out to the shop because it's been SO COLD, but we've got lots of stock still available. I'm counting down the days until we can work outside in the sun again. #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #creativebusiness #startuplife #startupgrind #woodworking #whenwillitbewarmagain

January and February are always slower after the madness of Christmas. Even though we get to take a little break, the gorgeous workbench that Alex built has been working double duty as a potting bench!

Quick update on what we got up to this past weekend! #skiing #snowboarding #monttremblant

Happy clients make my day :) this is Celia, owner of @inspiring_zen with her new custom bracelet stand! Thanks Celia! #localbusiness #localsupportlocal #woodworking #custom #customjob #kwawesome #wrawesome

Our wraps work just as hard as you, doing double duty as both packaging and plate for when you're stuck at your desk over lunch. #beeswax #beeswaxwraps #desklunch #ecofriendly #charcuterie #charcuterieboard #woodworking #wood #grind #ladyboss #dontquityourdaydream

Now up on the website! Check out how to care for your board.

Christmas photos have started coming in from our customers and we couldn't be more excited to share them! Cora contacted me from Red Deer Alberta, looking for a custom cutting and serving board for Jakeb. This one ended up being one of my very favourite custom jobs because of the personal message that I got to burn into the bottom. It reads "Home is wherever I'm with you". How cute is that?! I hope you both enjoy the board for years to come!! @corascool ... #christmasgifts #woodworking #custom #customorder #kitchener #kwawesome #longdistancefriendship

Pretty new patterns for back to school! Beeswax wraps are perfect for sandwiches, leftovers, avocado and onion halves, and of course, cheese and salami! Because they breathe, they keep your foods fresh without letting them sweat (moisture = mold), and they're also an all natural, Eco friendly alternative to plastic wrap and snack baggies. ... We'll have them for sale soon on the site, which is your favourite? Big shout out to @fridaysoff for being my new go to. I love supporting other local (and lady owned!) businesses! #beeswax #beeswaxwraps #localbusiness #local #woodworking #cheese #cheeseboard #charcuterie #cooking #backtoschool #fridaysoffstash

From nothing to something! By the way, the Muskoka chair is also made by Alex! #woodworking

Our garden is getting some special treatment thanks to @portercable ! Douglas Fir and wire mesh will hopefully keep those pesky animals from enjoying our watermelon before we have a chance to! #woodworking #douglasfir #portercable #garden #gardening #plants #watermelon #plantparenthood #smallbusiness #summer #maker #homestead #happyhomesteading #wannabehomesteader

Happy July everyone! We're alive and well after quite a few changes (including a move!) and now we're gearing up for the busy season. This morning I'm doing some product testing, can anyone guess what it is? I'll give you a hint: back to school is in 6 short weeks! #backtoschool #backtoreality #smallbusiness #local #localbusiness #productlaunch #woodworking #wood #food #foodie #entrepreneur #beeswax #charcuterie #cheese #cheeseboard #allnatural #sustainableliving #sustainable
