I've been creating my cards and boats for several years, using driftwood found on local Cornish beaches. I love the idea of turning something quite banal into a beautiful object. I hope you like it here. Please pop back again soon! This is a stunning piece - an extension of my beach hut cards! Six huts in a row made from Cornish driftwood and recycled wood in gorgeous colours, each adorned with a flag made from various spotty and stripey fabrics. Due to the handmade nature of these pieces, each one is unique, so the one you receive may differ slightly from the one pictured - but that's what makes it an original!! Professionally mounted and framed in a deep whitewashed wooden frame. Measures 47cm x 22cm. Made to order. Please allow 7 days for delivery. kirstyelson Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:14:46 +0000 http://folksy.com/items/2772678 http://folksy.com/items/2772678 Framed driftwood beach hut collage Not a traditional choice for Valentines Day, but did you know that seahorses mate for life?
