Carl and I have wanted to start a new adventure and open our own Etsy shop ThistlesandPine. We have been planning for a few months and now it's really happening (eeeekkk). We both love woodworking and nature so why not combine the two into some unique pieces of art.
Behind the name –
Carl is a born and raised Californian boy who grew up spending his summers out in nature fishing, hiking, camping, basically doing all things manly. I, myself am Scottish. Born in Glasgow and raised in London and Edinburgh. I moved to California nine years ago and fell in love with the laid back attitude, sun and of course a Californian. Living in southern california is magical because you feel like you live in by the beach, in the city, and in the mountains as they are all within an hours drive. Our brand name ThistlesandPine is a piece of us, our heritage and our passions.
We continue to spend as much time in nature as possible, going up to Carl's old stomping grounds in the Sierras every summer. We are always looking for new adventures to go on, speaking of which this weekend we are off the Zion National Park for a four day camping trip to celebrate our second wedding anniversary.
We are counting on word of mouth and social media to promote our hand crafted pieces of woodwork. This is a very exciting new adventure for us and we can't wait to see where this all goes.
Follow us on;
Thanks
