Wooden Forest Designs by Steve Blackerby (MY DAD)

I'm so excited and proud to announce that my Dad, Steve Blackerby, has his very first artist reception coming up next week at The Sunflower Studio in Wake Forest, NC on Friday, November 9th from 5 to 9pm.

Dad graduated from Auburn University with a design degree and has used his artistic eye and creativity throughout his life at work managing a team of creative marketers but MORE IMPORTANTLY... he has used these skills to make our family furniture, desks, shelves and all of life's little necessities throughout our childhood and even as adults. These pieces are not only handmade with love but they are gorgeous!

My Dad will be sharing his collection of handmade wooden spoons next week... that's right, he's moving his work out of the garage for all to see!

Each spoon was handcrafted in one of my favorite places, Dad's garage. He widdled, shaped and smoothed to the rhythm of great music and ended with a product that is functional and easy on the eyes. You won't be able to help yourself... you will have to pick one up!

You won't want to miss this!
