Wooden furniture from our Somerset workshop; new designs Spring 2022

30th March 2022 By Marc Wood

In our Somerset workshop we have several new handmade wooden furniture designs for Spring

Slim Bookcase, Mirror With Shelf Cubbies & Triple Aperture Picture Frame

We’ve made a slim version of our classic bookcase for those narrower rooms in your home and for this design the chunky top doesn’t feature our 2 cm overhang, enabling a neat fit exactly into your space.

We were also commissioned to create our signature ‘dovetail’ mirror with a shelf divided into 3 cute cubbies and we and our customer are very pleased with the results!

Stephen gave us a 5 star review on Google in February for our handmade wooden furniture and you can see his own photo of the lovely mirror in his home if you visit our review page.

“ I purchased a mirror with custom designed solid-wood frame and shelf. Marc Wood was able to make this to my exact specifications, and perfectly colour-match to another piece of my furniture. Communication was excellent – friendly, helpful with fast responses.

Delivery was on a day of my choosing, and well packaged.

The price was great value.

A true craftsman who I cannot praise highly enough “

In other news, our triple aperture wooden picture frame for an 8 x10 inch or A4 image has had a makeover and is now available in our Dark Danish Oil finish.

Our Shop Space at The Ilminster Emporium

The Ilminster Emporium in Somerset has welcomed a new trader in ‘Modern Vintage’ with lovely original clothing and accessories by Mulberry and other heritage brands from the UK.

We were asked to make a dressing mirror to complement the ‘ Modern Vintage’ shop space which is opposite our own handmade wooden furniture and we love this elegant thick framed mirror, which sits on a sturdy wooden stand, available to buy from the Ilminster Emporium, Silver Street TA19 0DH.

Bespoke Options Always Available

As usual we are happy to create a bespoke piece of handmade wooden furniture for you, just contact Marc and Rachel wood in Somerset on 01460 5337 or email marcswood@hotmailco.uk for details.

Enjoy your Springtime,

Best Wishes, Marc & Rachel

26th January 2021 By Marc Wood

Hello from our furniture workshop in Somerset!
We hope that you are keeping safe and well under the current C19 restrictions, whatever they may be in your area.

Here in the Southwest we are feeling refreshed after our Christmas break, we took a few weeks of family time and as many of you will know we hardly ever do this, so it felt great!

We have also taken a month off from our newsletter and this is our first update since November 2020.

10% discount off our Etsy shop prices. this offer is available for all direct sales (not delivery costs) via PayPal or BACS, contact us for more information.

From January 2021 we are now selling our kitchen island and chest of drawers exclusively to our website customers.

This winter in our farmhouse workshop

Rachel has been spending a lot of time in the workshop recently, helping us to catch up with our waiting list and taking lots of photos of our making process.

This month you can see our large double door bathroom cabinet at two stages of construction, from putting together the main carcass to the dovetail doors being fitted.

See our Instagram pages for more behind the scenes workshop pictures.

5 star Reviews
Our reviews on Google are really helping our little business to stand out on the web and we want to say a huge thanks to all who have taken the time to leave us a comment or two.

Pauline and Tom gave us 5 stars and left a review of the slim kitchen island which we recently made for them.

“ A customised size kitchen island, of the highest quality and workmanship and just looks fabulous in our kitchen “

If you have the time to support us by leaving a review, please visit our Google My Business Page.

New designs on our social media pages

We have adapted some of our classic designs for a new twist on our well loved pieces.

Our chunky kitchen wall cabinet has been fitted with a wire mesh panel in place of the glass for a rustic farmhouse look and our single wall shelves have been give an extra 2 cm of thickness to really bring out the character of the natural wood.

We have made several substantial sink stands in our signature dovetail style, but this is the first in our rich dark Danish Oil finish and we think that our customers choice of antique style metal handles and wrought iron towel rail suit this bespoke piece very well.

See our Facebook page for more of on our latest designs.

Emporium Shop News

The Ilminster Emporium has been closed again along with the other ‘non essential’ shops in our little town, but we traders have rallied to set up another successful Click & Collect service.

We did very well in December and we want to thank everyone who supported their local shops where possible in the run up to Christmas.

We will be updating our window displays and Instagram page to showcase a variety of local handmade art, gifts and homeware.

Our award winning wildlife photographer Robin Morrison took this night-time photo of the iconic building which houses the Emporium.

Your photographs from January 2021

Our wonderful customers have been sending us more brilliant photos of items in their new homes for use to use on our social media pages.

This month we are going back a few years to revisit two glass fronted cabinets onboard a galley kitchen, we see our classic portrait mirror with shelf set above a modern bathroom sink and a large double dovetail mirror door cabinet made to match our new design sink stand, which can both be seen in a spacious white tiled bathroom and we think they all look great!

Family time in Somerset
It may be chilly and damp during these winter months but our Jack Russell Marv has found a new spot to keep cosy, up on the back of the sofa wrapped in Rachel’s favourite sage herringbone National Trust blanket.

Not sure how he found this spot but he’s quite happy there, keeping out of the way during the sometimes fraught home schooling hours.

Like everyone in the UK we have not been able to travel very much recently but we have been delivering a few items locally and just before Christmas we stopped off to visit Brean beach for a wintry walk, the sea mist was very atmospheric and it was a quiet and beautiful afternoon.

Last weekend we had a few snow flurries in Somerset and we were lucky enough to be at National Trust Montacute House for a walk through the grounds while the snow as on the ground, it wasn’t very deep but our son Arthur and Mav had fun making footprints and even building a very small snowman.

We will be back with another update next month and if you have any questions or if there is anything which we can create for your home, just ask.

Best Wishes,
Marc & Rachel Wood

Autumn news from Marc & Rachel in Somerset: handmade mirrors, picture frames & cabinets.

17th November 2020 By Marc Wood

Hello from Somerset!

We hope that you are keeping safe and well under the current C19 restrictions and that you have not been too badly affected by the closures.

Here in the Southwest we feel fortunate that the November lock down in England has been very different from earlier in the year; all of our local suppliers remain open and we can continue to make our mirrors, picture frames and cabinets.

We can still get ‘take out’ hot chocolate at the beach and our 10 year old son is back in school with his friends.

What next for our high street shop space?

The Ilminster Emporium has been closed since Bonfire Night along with the other ‘non essential’ shops in our little town, which is difficult as we approach the usual time for Christmas shopping.

We traders all pulled together to set up a successful Click & Collect service and you can still buy a small range of our handmade mirrors, picture frames and cabinets from the shop.

As the news was coming in about the new English lock down and after working so hard to build up the momentum lost in March, we all wanted to keep the Emporium going, even if we couldn’t open as normal.

We set up a new Instagram page and pledged to collectively promote every traders items as often as we could on our social pages.

We also have an evolving window display to entice our lovely local customers to keep shopping with us.

So far the results have been really good and we are very thankful for everyone who has continued to support our little shop.

You can contact us via the Emporium Facebook page to reserve any items.

10% discount off our Etsy shop prices

As seen on our website, we are happy to offer this discount for all direct sales (not delivery costs) via PayPal or BACS, email us for more information.

Autumn in the workshop

As the weather turns colder we have stopped using the extra outdoor space which we hired to help social distancing in our workshop.

We are carefully balancing the staffing hours to continue to keep the team safe and unfortunately that means that our extra long lead times have not yet returned to their pre pandemic low of 2 – 3 weeks.

Our farmhouse workshop may be chillier in the Autumn months, but it can also be very beautiful with a frosty morning sparkle or an eerie mist in the afternoon and we have taken some really atmospheric photos over the years.

You can find more workshop pictures on our Instagram pages.

5 star Reviews

We are now into double figures with our reviews on Google and it is really helping our little business to stand out on the web, we want to say a HUGE thanks to all who have taken the time to leave us a comment or two.

Our lovely new customer Susan gave us 5 stars on the 9^th November and left a review of the extra wide frame wooden mirror which we recently made for her.

“ My mirror is beautiful, very well made and stunning in its simplicity! ”

If you have the time to support us by leaving a review, please visit our Google My Business Page.

Here is our latest 5 star review on our Etsy.com shop

Rachel was very happy with her custom made ‘dovetail’ mirror with water resistant Danish Oil finish and she left us this great review on 3rd November 2020

“Marc came back to me so quickly with a quote on a bespoke mirror. It fits our bathroom perfectly and looks lovely ”

Contact us before 23^rd November for a pre Christmas delivery

Our cabinets and larger pieces remain at 6 weeks (down from 8) but we are able to accommodate pre Christmas deliveries for most of our mirrors and for all of our picture frames if purchased by Monday 23^rd November.

Marc and our team are all working very hard and we and hope to be able to extend this offer with a special limited number of mirrors and picture frames, available for delivery right up until Christmas week, please watch our social pages for updates.

The best Christmas gift (with a waggy tail!)

Every November we have a little family to remember when our crazy Jack Russell ‘Marv’ came to live with us, 4 years ago.
We are so pleased that we made the decision to collect our bouncy puppy a few weeks before Christmas to give us all time to settle in before the chaos of wrapping paper and shiny decorations added to the daily disarray of lost squeaky toys and a knocked over water bowl.
Marv is still very playful and his water bowl sometimes gets knocked over still, but we all love him.

Your photographs

Our kind customers have kept us going these past few months, closing completely in March was very upsetting and like many others we honestly did not know if we would have a business to come back to.
Your understanding of our extra long lead times has been much appreciated and we are always very interested to see the photos that you send us of your handmade pieces in their new home.
This month we have Hesta’s two large picture frames and Debby’s mirrored bathroom wall cabinet to show off and we think they look great.

For more customer photos see our Pinterest pages.

We will be back with another update next month.

If you have any questions or if there is anything which we can create for your home, just ask.

Best Wishes,
Marc & Rachel Wood

Latest furniture designs & news from Marc & Rachel in Somerset

15th October 2020 By Marc Wood

Hello from Somerset, our new bathroom cabinet designs and more!

We hope that you are keeping cosy and warm as these autumnal evenings draw in, our log burner has roaring away this past week (we do have quite a lot of wood bits to use up) and our Jack Russell ‘Marv’ absolutely loves lying in his favourite place by the hearth.

We are really enjoying helping out in the Ilminster Emporium, admiring our fellow traders lovely items and finding lots of great ideas for Christmas presents; Rachel even has her eye on a vintage chair or two.

We have also been creating new variations of our classic bathroom cabinet, supporting our town’s fundraising efforts, beach combing in Devon & discovering that fashion designer Alice Temperley has just set up here in Ilminster.

10% discount off our Etsy shop prices

This offer is available for all direct sales (not delivery costs) via PayPal or BACS, email us for more information.

Our Dovetail cabinet as a sink stand
Our Devon based customer Shaun asked us to create a bespoke version of our classic ‘dovetail’ wooden cabinet to hold a ceramic sink.

We think it looks great and it adds a natural, rustic character to the renovation of their beautiful 19^th century home.

New Bathroom Accessories
We recently created a quirky nautical towel rail for our lovely local repeat customer Emma and we think that the contrast of wood and rope works really well.

September’s Bestseller
Our slim bathroom cabinet with a single solid wooden door in the ‘antique’ Danish Oil finish became the month’s bestselling style, this cabinet features our ‘hidden’ handle and 3 generous shelves to hold a variety of bathroom essentials.

For our latest designs, check in with our Instagram and our Facebook page.

5 star Reviews
We are now into double figures with our reviews on Google and it is really helping our little business to stand out on the web, so huge thanks to all who have taken the time to leave us a comment or two.

Our lovely repeat customer Ivor gave us 5 stars on the 29th September and left a detailed review of the wide wooden wall shelf which we recently made for him.

“ Excellent craftsmanship and great design and very good price. I am pleased, as ever with my third purchase from Marc Wood. Highly recommended”

If you have the time to support us by leaving a review, please visit our Google My Business Page.

Our Etsy.com shop continues to be busy and everyone has been very kind and patient with our longer lead times, we have now managed to get this down to 6 weeks from 8.

Marc and our team are all working very hard and we and hope to be able to offer 2 weeks for our gift items, in time for Christmas.

Here is our latest 5 star review about our smaller mirror with shelf and water resistant Danish Oil finish:

“ This beautiful mirror, looks amazing in my bathroom, thank you so much” Claire, 6th October 2020.

We found our latest design inspiration while wandering along our favourite Devon beaches near Challaborough Bay.

Shaped by the sea, the twisted and weathered driftwood we found is going to make up the basis of our new tea light holder and lamp designs.

Keep a watch on our social pages for more developments.

The Ilminster Emporium shop

We continue to establish ourselves as a venue for high quality home interiors and gifts, we have seen an increase in visitors and we will be opening late on a Wednesday for gift buying as Christmas approaches.

Save our town flags!

We have been supporting our town’s fundraising efforts to replace the colourful flags which fly outside of shops and businesses during the warmer months.

A raffle has been organised (the closing date to buy tickets is the end of October) there are £1,170 worth of prizes on offer, with the first prize valued at £500, all from small businesses, including a handmade wooden wall mirror donated by ourselves.

We need £7,000 to replace the flags, if you would like to support us you can also donate via our Just Giving page.

High fashion in our high street

Temperley London have set up a hub of offices and a shop in our pretty little town of Ilminster.

The arrival of such a well known fashion house is great for our town profile and for our local economy. We know of several young people who have now secured part time jobs with the company, which is a fantastic boost to their prospects.

We will be back with another update next month, if you have any questions or if there is anything which we can create for your home, just ask.

Best Wishes,
Marc & Rachel Wood

New mirror designs and updates from Marc & Rachel, August 2020

9th September 2020 By Marc Wood

Our latest handmade mirror designs & more from Somerset:

We hope that you are getting safely back into your routine now that summer is at an end.

Late summer updates: In-between creating some new designs and digitising our paperwork, we have been getting ready for our son’s return to year 6 in school and even finding a few days to celebrate our 9 year wedding anniversary in lovely Devon.

Our workshop team continue to settle into their new ‘socially distanced’ working space, which has inspired Rhian to set up a home workshop of her own!

10% discount off our Etsy shop prices

As seen on our website, this offer is available for all direct sales (not delivery costs) via PayPal or BACS, email us for more information.

Our Dovetail mirror in natural Oak.
Our local customer (and plant expert!) Clare asked us to create our classic ‘dovetail’ mirror frame in natural Oak to compliment the new doors and window-ledges of her characterful period cottage renovation.

We love the deep grain which has been really brought out by the application of a clear Osmo Oil finish (see our Facebook page for more of our handmade pieces in their new homes)

Enjoying the west-country
During the school holidays we met up with the old gang from Exeter for a family friendly camper van weekend in Porlock and the children wore off some of that lock-down energy playing until dusk.

Then we spent some time with Rachel’s family in Devon, walking Marv on the beach and enjoying big barbecue dinners.

We are making some more items for sale in our Somerset shop space at The Emporium in Ilminster and there are lots of local artisan traders joining us all the time.

If you are passing by, it is well worth a visit to our lovely little Somerset town.

New Furniture Designs
We created a bespoke chunky chest of drawers with matching rustic beside table for our lovely Etsy.com customer in London and they kindly got in touch to let us know how happy they are with our work.

A smaller version of these drawers is usually available on our website and in our Etsy shop, we have temporarily closed this listing and others for our larger pieces while we get ready for the full return of our team.

We hope to drop our extra long 8 week lead time very soon, once we have caught up and we really appreciate everyone’s patience and kindness during the long wait.

We also made a large picture frame to house an embroidery sampler and our creative customer has taken the time to send us a photo, we love the way our wooden frame compliments the farmhouse style mantelpiece.

We are now making a new style set of ‘architects drawers with a mix of ceramic and library handles, we will be sharing photos once completed, so check in with our Instagram.

August’s Bestseller
Our classic large bathroom cabinet with double dovetail mirror doors in the ‘antique’ Danish Oil finish became the month’s bestselling style, this cabinet features our ‘hidden’ handles on the lower front pieces of the doors. Marc wanted to maintain the sleek lines of the subtle curved edges and also to use as much of the wood ‘offcuts’ as possible in order to reduce waste.

5 star Reviews
We have a profile on Yell.com (or as we used to know it, the ‘Yellow Pages’!)

“ Marc made a superb bathroom cabinet for us. Excellent craftsmanship and a pleasure to deal with”

Mike gave us 5 stars on 7^th September and left a lovely comment about the large bespoke bathroom cabinet which we recently made for him.

Our Etsy shop continues to be busy since we re-opened back in May, here is our latest brilliant review from Sally on 8^th September:

“ We love this mirror. Its beautifully made and just the right size. We requested the item to be a bit smaller than advertised which Marc was extremely helpful in accommodating. It arrived superbly packed and is perfect for our requirements. Thank you so much”

We will be back with another update next month, if you have any questions or if there is anything which we can create for your home, just ask.

Best Wishes,
Marc & Rachel Wood
