Early present :-)

I did my last craft exhibition of the year last weekend and while I was there a man offered me some bits of box wood he had cut from his garden. Not wishing to appear ungrateful I visited to collect the wood and was pleasantly surprised to be presented with a dozen 5' lengths!
I think I need a bigger woodstore! ;-)

Don't think Ihave ever seen boxwood that size. Must have been a very old shrub.
