Welcome to my blog. About us…..Our Story. Through Tasmanian Forest Beads I am endeavouring to produce items that are not only beautiful and useful but tell a story about sustainability. You will notice that most of the things I produce are small items made from special Tasmanian timbers. Much of the timber I use is waste from other craftspeople or what many would consider to be second grade timber however given the small size of much of what I make I am able to achieve extremely high recovery rates of this valuable resource. To take this a step further toward demonstrating a strong sustainability ethic I have certification through Chain of Custody which ensures that all the timber I use can be traced through a supply chain to harvesting sources that align with legal and sustainable forest practices. You can find more information about this quality assurance system at www.chainofcustody.com.au Please feel free to follow my blog on this website through which I hope to share my story.
