Our upcycled cutlery jewellery comes wrapped like this in a brown recycled large letter size box. They have a small history card ( if I can find out anything about the pieces), a General Info and Thank You card.
Welcome to the Fork Emporium news page for 2022. To see what's gone on before News 2021 may be of interest. This is early January, cold and grey and the days are still short. Quiet time for events and fairs but they accelerate as the year goes on. The donkeys Walter & Timothy down in Devon are our mascots again as usual and you can see them here if you browse a bit. See Events 2022 above or click Events
Not all cutlery becomes Jewellery. The Victorians had cutlery for everything. The snail shell for dipping snails into garlic for example and the lobster spike on the right adjacent to the sardine fork.

Haven't a great deal of news. As mentioned the first three months are quiet recovery time. We have done four or five events including Bourne Town Hall, Lincoln Big Craft Event, Lamport Hall and Chester House. Chester House is on again this weekend as well as Stamford Food & Garden Fair on Stamford Meadows.

Isn’t January flying by ? My work fits well in to this challenge , recycling, upcycled, repurposed are all words I use daily . All the cutlery we use was made between 1880 -1950’s and basically has all become redundant, lots of it just thrown away. I try to find a use for all of it , handles are bracelets and angels , earrings and key rings; teaspoon bowls Christmas decorations. The more worn out pieces become pictures, wind chimes, hooks and my chandelier/ hanging things .
Since joining #tbch I have met @littledorisdesigns and sent some of my fork ends to be made into their lovely cheese markers . Check out #littledoris products and packaging for gold standard eco friendly !
Finally if anything is left it will go to the scrap metal man and undergo a mysterious process when they separate different metals … alchemy!
My packages go in recycled cardboard boxes. There are a few ways I could improve, always working on that , we compost, collect rainwater and recycle as much as we can .
We've been doing this sort of thing long before Greta was born, long before the fork emporium and we're definitely not hippies or eco warriors.
