Simple drift wood stool - for the allotment fire pit

Simple drift wood stool
for the allotment fire pit

A couple of years ago I found a piece of drift wood in Copenhagen harbour and took it with me. It ended up in the allotment, where it just stood and laughed at me. Until this summer where I looked at it on a beautiful sunny day, birds singing, elder flowers in blossom and me with a wood working itching in my hands – so I saddled up the good old shaving horse, found some pine roof rafters and started making shavings, until I had four legs… well six, ten, ahhh stop MaFe, I had two legs, the shaving horse four and now I had four legs on the loose, so they had to find a home, before they would run away…
