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

17th November 2020 By Marc Wood

Welcome to our late Autumn news from Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset. We have been busy crafting our handmade wooden furniture, running Click & Collect from the Ilminster Emporium and getting design inspiration from our Somerset farmhouse workshop. This month we feature our bespoke wooden picture frame and bathroom cabinet. With 5 star reviews for our chunky framed wooden wall mirror and our bestseller has been our large mirror with shelf.

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.
The Ilminster Emporium has been closed since Bonfire Night along with the other ‘non essential’ shops in our little Somerset town so we traders all pulled together to set up a successful Click & Collect service and you can still buy our handmade wooden picture frames, mirrors and cabinets.
  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.

Our workshop at Flaxdrayton Farm 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.
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.

Every November we have a little family celebration 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.
The best Christmas gift (with a waggy tail!)

At Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset 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.
 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.

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.

Latest furniture designs & news from Marc & Rachel in Somerset

15th October 2020 By Marc Wood

Welcome to our early autumn news from Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset. We have been busy crafting our handmade wooden furniture, selling from the Ilminster Emporium and getting design inspiration from our favourite Devon beaches. This month we feature our bespoke wooden sink stand bathroom cabinet and 5 star reviews for our wooden wall mirror with shelf.

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 love our dog assistant Marv, here at Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset. Our lovely Jack Russell terrier keeps us company and is a great excuse to get out and about when we need to take a break from our furniture workshop. In the autumn he loves to keep cosy and warm by the log burning stove.

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.

At Marc Wood Joinery we were commissioned to create a bespoke version of our classic 'dovetail' wooden cabinet to hold a ceramic sink. In early autumn our bestseller in our online shop was our slim wooden bathroom cabinet and we made a nautical rope and wood towel rail in our Somerset workshop.

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 19th 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

Mirror designs include our very popular handmade mirror with shelf, mirror with shelf and cast iron hooks and mirror with shelf and upcycled coat hanger hooks. Each handcrafted from sustainable natural wood by Marc Wood Joinery, Ilminster Somerset UK.
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'!)

“ 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”

Marc Wood Joinery handmade sustainable wooden picture frames, mirrors and custom handmade modern rustic farmhouse furniture in Somerset Blog News June 2020

Hello from our furniture workshop in Somerset!
We hope that you are staying safe and well as we ease back in to life with the gradual lifting of the full C19 lock-down.
This past month we have been enjoying our birthdays, adding even more new furniture designs to our shop and extending our farmyard workshop to allow our amazing team to come back safely.

June’s Bestseller
Our large dovetail bathroom cabinet with a single mirror door became the month’s bestselling style, this is one of our earliest cabinet designs and we are very proud of how popular and enduring it has proved to be with our lovely customers.
At Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset our new wooden wall mirror with shelf has 5 'leaf head' metal hooks under the inset chunky shelf and our large wooden dovetail bathroom cabinet with a single mirror door became June's bestselling style.

New Furniture Designs 
We created a new mirror with shelf, featuring 5 of the characterful ‘leaf head’ metal hooks nestled under the inset chunky shelf.  You may remember these new hooks from our chalk and pin board which we covered last month.
Marc is continuing in our furniture workshop with our new ‘home working’ range with wall mounted desks and office storage for small spaces, although completion of this will have to wait until we have caught up with our waiting list (which is now at a lengthy 8 weeks for new orders!)

The Ilminster Emporium shop in Somerset is now open, local press covered the story and Rachel's birthday day out was to Corfe Castle in Dorset.
Our High Street Shop Space
The Ilminster Emporium in the characterful period building at 19 Silver Street TA19 0DH has been open for several weeks and our local newspaper helpfully ran a feature on our new arty traders.
Rachel has been volunteering once a week to help out and has really enjoyed meeting our local customers, chatting and finding out what type of furniture they want to see us create next (we are working on the home working desks, we promise!)
A month of Birthdays
June is usually a month for getting together with our friends and family to celebrate both of our birthdays.
For over 15 years, to mark our June birthdays, we have been meeting up with the same group of friends for a weekend of camping around Marc’s birthday on the Summer Solstice. 
This year we celebrated Marc's birthday at Exmouth beach in Devon so he could use his new paddle board and take a break from the Marc Wood Joinery wooden furniture workshop in Somerset.
more furniture, home-ware, woodworking, picture frames and mirror photos on the Marc Wood Joinery Instagram page.
Unfortunately this year it wasn’t possible, but we had ‘distanced’ fun visiting  the very atmospheric Corfe Castle in Dorset to celebrate Rachel’s birthday with a rather windy picnic and then enjoying another family trip to the beach in nearby Devon on the weekend of the 22nd so that Marc could try out his new paddle board and get out of our furniture workshop for the day!
 (see our
 Instagram for more pics)
After the C 19 lock down has begun to lift in early July 2020 our furniture making team are coming back to work with us at Flaxdrayton Farm in Somerset.
Welcoming Our Team Back
We are very pleased to see our small team return to us at Flaxdrayton Farm and we have really missed them all. Even with all the noise and bustle of our furniture making, it has seemed very quiet around here over the past few months.
Now the break room biscuit barrel has been refilled with treats and last week we finished setting up our new additional work space in the outer barns.
This allows our team members Tave and Rhian to maintain 2 metres distance while they help us to catch up with the new orders generated when Marc was all on his own.

Tips & tricks 
This month’s very simple woodworking tip is about accurately measuring your timber before cutting.
If you pencil in a little tick mark on the side to cut on, this will save time remeasuring and helps to account for ‘kerf’ or the thickness of the cutting blade.
Any cutting will result in some of the wood being turned into sawdust and cutting directly on the marked line will cause your cut to be inaccurate.

This month's very simple woodworking tip is about accurately measuring your timber before cutting.
Measure and make a small tick to the side of the measured line you want to cut on and then line your saw blade up to the line with the blade on the ticked side.
The kerf will now be on the other side of the line and not into your measured area see more on this great wood working site instructables.com.
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.
