They are a real joy to make and add a real rustic charm to any occasion or room. Once the Christmas holiday is over, I’ll set up the shop to get a bunch of these on the stock shelf and ready to ship. I have a few on hand right now that can ship on Monday. These rustic tealight candle holders are made right here in Maine in my shop by myself and my supervisor, Tuka the Wonder Dog, from kiln-dried pine. Each piece is unique as no two piece burn or finish the same. Wood is charred, then finished with a light coat of polyurethane. These candles have the look of “Shou Sugi Ban” preservation, but aren’t truly scorched cedar. Using a lightly burnt pine with a finish helps keep your home from smelling smoky and keeps the piece from becoming overly sticky or oily. Choices are 12″ or 6″ long holders, both come with tealight candles. * 12″ 3 tier holders measure 2″ wide x 12″ long x 4 3/8″ high and holds 4 candles each. * 6″ 2 tier holders measure 2″ wide x 6″ long x 2 7/8″ high and holds 2 candles each. These candles will bring a real rustic charm to your home, office, camp, or romantic getaway. A great ambiance addition to a dining or restaurant area as well. Our packaging foam and some of our boxes are recycled from a local garage door installation business to minimize waste and impact on the planet. Each order is for one candle holder, multiples may be ordered at check out. Candle holders come with candles included, but no greenery or additional decor shown in photos. Measurements may vary slightly depending on wood and sanding/processing. Shipping is $9.00 for one, $3.00 each additional or add on to other purchases form the Etsy Store Visit FehuWorks.com for all the latest from the Free Range Creative and Tuka the Wonder Dog.

Tealight Logs for Home, Cabin, or Camp https://fehuworks.com/2023/12/15/tealight-logs-for-home-cabin-or-camp/ https://fehuworks.com/2023/12/15/tealight-logs-for-home-cabin-or-camp/#respond Fri, 15 Dec 2023 19:29:42 +0000 https://fehuworks.com/?p=90 As the rush of fulfilling holiday orders around the shop subsides, the time to breathe gives Tuka and I a chance to consider what’s here, tidy up, and think about new products and uses for things that may not have fit the holidays. I have a shelf full of these rough and tumble rustic logs that are just wonderful pieces of Maine, but don’t quite fit the bill for “Christmas pristine magic” but they DO fit the bill for pagan altar magic or camp and cabin getaway ambiance. These rustic log candle holders are rough around the edges. They’ve seen rough winters, hot summers, and the rigors of the Maine wilderness. They are either off-color, scarred from harvesting, peeling, or off-shape in some way. Some are brown, grey, red, brown, or nice and white but with scarred bark, knots, or other unique deformities. These are the log candle holders you want for a true birch outdoorsy look in your home, camp, or cabin. I unfortunately can’t take “special requests” with these rugged logs, I am working through a stack and I’ll grab each order from the top as they come. So expect a fair amount of variation in appearance. Grab them now on ETSY while they last

Vegvisir Candle https://fehuworks.com/2023/12/12/vegvisir-candle/ https://fehuworks.com/2023/12/12/vegvisir-candle/#respond Wed, 13 Dec 2023 00:56:43 +0000 https://fehuworks.com/?p=64 The vegvísir (Icelandic for “wayfinder”, lit. ’way shower’) is an Icelandic magical stave intended to help the bearer find their way through rough weather. The symbol is attested in the Huld Manuscript, collected in Iceland by Geir Vigfusson in Akureyri in 1860, and does not have any earlier attestations. A leaf of the manuscript provides an image of the vegvísir, gives its name, and, in prose, declares that “if this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known”. Putting it on an all natural birch candle seemed like the right way to go for those finding their way. Get yours here
