Knock on Wood
At ''Knock on Wood'' we create unique Gifts for the home and garden. Personalised or pre-made every item is made with care and love in our home workshop. As you can tell from the name our products are all created from wood including gift plaques for the home brandishing quirky, funny or sentimental quotes, engraved logs for your garden spicing up your flower border, clearly separating areas or just welcoming guests. We also hand make candle holders and coat hooks all of which can be bought as they are or personalised with a personal message. Oh and did we forget to say all of our wood is reclaimed so we are saving the planet too!
