HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR CARVING:
Your carving has been treated with wood oil but it is important to remember it is a living and breathing piece of wood. This means it will it will develop some cracks and shakes depending on the type of wood and how you look after it. Below are some tips on how to care for your new carving.
- Your carving is best displayed in dappled shade. Avoid placing your carving in direct sunlight as this may lead to discolouring and cracking in intense heat.
​
- It is best to keep your carving from sitting directly on grass or soil. Perhaps place the piece on a stone slab, your patio or slate. A small gap beneath the carving will allow airflow and help maintain the quality of your piece.
​
- For your carving to live a long and happy life you should treat the piece with a wood oil two to three times a year.
​
- Large carvings will need to be secured to prevent falling.
If looked after correctly your carving will last a long time. I hope that you enjoy your carving as much as I enjoyed creating it.
