Poppy makes many beautiful scroll saw plaques but I think this is one of his best.


I want to remind everyone that the last day for the Mother's Day sale is May 4th.

Change in Shipping Costs

The USPS is in the process of changing the amount it costs to ship items. We have had to increase the shipping rates on the larger items in our store from $6.95 to $9.95. If that seems a lot than I implore you to consider a couple of things,

1. We have to adjust with the post office

2. A huge consideration is that wood plaques and some clocks weigh more than shipping a shirt or a piece of jewelry and require a little more packing to prevent breakage.

We recently shipped a custom order to a buyer and because of the size and special packing required, it cost $41.00 to ship.

Poppy puts a lot of love and care into the work he does and we want to make sure that it arrives to you undamaged.

Store Update and Two New Plaques

Our Easter sale was a success and we sold 2 plaques. We also had another plaque sell that is being customized to the buyers' specifications. Very good news for us.

There has been a change made to Poppy's Scroll Saw Woodwork Website. The trivia idea was a bust. That is okay though, that is how we find out what works. I discovered that a lot of people, when they come to the website, are more interested in seeing what new woodwork has been added. So, with the deletion of the Trivia Tab, I have added a new tab called More New Woodwork. This was especially handy because I added two new scroll saw plaques to the store this morning.

" Head of this Home "

" Never Forgotten "

To see these new scroll saw plaques and more, go and check out the store.
