Fleming Custom Design

Husband & Wife (& Family) artisan team creating handmade pieces in pottery, watercolor and wood.

We settled on 42 as the number of pieces in this set of blocks. As you can see, I ground off the nubs on the branches to make them uniformly roundish. We are excited to see the public reaction to these non-traditional, rustic blocks. They will be for sale at the Plainfeld Band Booster Craft Show, as will our tradition blocks, wee toys, coffee cups, and many more handcrafted wooden and ceramic items. The show is October 26 and 27 at the Plainfield High School Central campus.

We're trying out a new format for a set of blocks: using tree branches, with the bark, instead of dimensional lumber. I kinda like the look, and I think it ought to stimulate a child's imagination in some different directions. There will be 40 or 42 pieces in a set, depending how the wood in my stash speaks to me. I'm thinking 42 is the right number, "the meaning of life and everyrhing", and I'm curious how the customers at our next craft show will respond to this new direction.

What do you think?
