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, knots, wormholes 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. Card holders are also carved from small branches and are designed to hold about 25 standard sized business cards.
