ABOUT
Yep, that’s me, Leslie! I’m the one behind all the stuff you see here.
My dad and stepdad got me into the whole DIY thing when I was just a kid. So, it’s no surprise I’ve spent a ton of my adult life making things too. Now here I am, surrounded by stacks of old wood, letting my creativity run wild and turning the old into something new.
Everything you see here is handmade by yours truly using reclaimed wood. Is it perfect? Nope. But it’s totally one of a kind. Why not give these materials a fresh start instead of always going for brand-new?
Reclaimed
In my workshop, old wood gets a fresh start and a new purpose. It might turn into a lamp, a cutting board, or even a unique pair of earrings—each piece with its own story to tell.
It’s about more than the wood. Every piece I make helps cut down on waste and shows that sustainability can be simple. When you choose handmade, repurposed items, you’re not just getting something unique—you’re supporting a way of thinking that values creativity, responsibility, and giving materials a second chance.
JunkArt
Besides wood, there are more materials that I use, such as old metal objects. Rusty keys, crooked screws, or broken tools that have been discarded or forgotten. I use them to create what I call Junkart, giving these items a second life.
From these seemingly useless pieces of junk, I craft unique animal figures such as a bull, a fish, or a goat, bringing character to each creation. It takes creativity, imagination, and a keen eye to see the hidden potential in old tools. To transform them into a piece of deco with humor and charm in it.
"I bought a JunkArt bull as a gift, now everyone keeps asking me for more!"
