My wooden desk accessories include wooden stamp boxes, card holders, wooden letter openers, and pen holders. I carve each one from fruit tree prunings or from forest tree limbs downed by winter storms. My wooden stamp holders and pen holders are each carved from a section of a tree branch, bark and all, and hollowed out to contain a roll or stamps or a handful of pens. The lid for my wooden stamp holder is hinged to rotate, allowing a roll of stamps to be inserted. Wooden letter openers are carved from small tree limbs with its bark left on the handles to add a natural accent. Card holders are also carved from tree limbs and are designed to hold about 25 standard sized business cards. |
