Clive & Wendy are experienced Green Woodworkers, offering products and courses in that discipline. Wendy also produces willow products and offers courses in willow weaving. Our Green Woodworking & Willow products / courses are offered under the “Woodland Wendy” banner.

Clive & Wendy first developed an interest in leatherwork as an offshoot of Green Woodworking. The first leatherwork they undertook was the design and manufacture of leather tool guards and cases for many varied green woodworking tools, such as draw knives, spoke shaves, froes, carving knives etc. This lead to an interest in leatherwork in general and then enrollment on the first QCF Level 2 Creative Craft Leathercraft course at Northumberland College’s Hexham Centre. 

Both Clive & Wendy passed the course and after gaining further experience now offer a range of unique hand crafted items and introduction to leathercraft courses.
