Timmerwerk
Today's vendor is our youngest vendor, Will of Timmerwerk is just starting to get into the craft shows and markets. We are very happy to welcome him and his one of a kind wooden jewelry.
Will can introduce himself:
About Me:
My name is Will Daize. I am a 17 year old student and the creator of Timmerwerk. I made Timmerwerk as a way to express the desire I had to not only create, but to share something unique with others, and to do it with woodworking makes it perfect. This is because woodworking is one of my passions. I love turning what seems to be a simple piece of wood into a creation that can be appreciated by all. So, I decided to turn this passion into my business. It started with making small wooden projects (and a not so small bench) as Christmas gifts for my family. I then received a request from my sister to make wooden earrings, which, after a bit of thinking and tinkering, the first pair were made. I later made the first necklace from a simple offcut of a piece of wood I was working on, which sparked the idea to create and sell wooden jewelry. This started off by making a few necklaces that I sold to a couple of my friends. After talking to the right people, I was able to secure a spot at the Flesherton Home Show, which marked the first show that I attended. Now I am attending the Flesherton Farmers’ Market, as well as any other markets that I am able to attend. Overall, Timmerwerk is the first step in a hopefully long journey in woodworking as a business, but more importantly as a passion.
