(This is an oversized item, please call for additional shipping rates)		ENGLISH BATHRACK 28" $52.50 Thirty years ago, we were staying with some English friends who lived in a converted 16th century tannery in a Warwickshire hamlet. Every bathroom in their house was beautifully outfitted, and every one had a wooden bathrack across the end of the tub to accommodate all the things you might want in a bathtub – shampoo, razor, soap, wash cloth... We liked it so much, we bought five. Now after thirty years of “product testing”, we can report that these bathracks are still going strong. Other sizes are available.			AROMATIC CEDAR BLOCK 2" x 2 3/4" $1.00 These cedar blocks are made right here on Deer Isle. They are wonderful to put in a dresser drawer, or in with your linens to give them a lovely cedar smell. They are a great replacement for mothballs, and if they start to lose their scent, simply sand the block lightly to renew it again.
					AROMATIC CEDAR SACHET $2.75 The wonderful scent of cedar in a cotton drawstring bag.

Crooks and Canes: Raising sheep has been a long-established activity in the Penobscot Bay region, particularly on the inner islands. In spring, sheep are ferried out in open boats to graze until fall. Many of the islands have a manicured, close-cropped look as a result. So we have shepherd’s crooks. We also carry nice shrub canes that have great character. They and our crooks are bought by local shepherds as well as by gentle country folk, for hiking the lanes.		Image	Qty.	Item

Bobbins: Wooden bobbins were introduced into fabric Mills during the Industrial Revolution at the End of the 18th Century and the first part of The 19th Century, when mill machinery was Thoroughly revolutionized. Design Preferences developed from one mill to Another, accounting for a variety of shapes and sizes. Today, few mills still use wooden bobbins, but they are attractive artifacts of considerable appeal, and that opens up another life as candle and silk flower holders.		Image	Qty.	Item

Hand Made wooden Hay Forks:

In the Alpine areas of Austria, Germany, and Italy, traditional wooden hay forks are frequently used as decoration - on walls of country inns, restaurants, or Tyrolean houses.

Although nicely made wooden hay forks make marvelous decorations; they are certainly functional, their wooden tines being preferable to steel in stables.

Hay forks are respected as necessary and useful tools, and their association with the bounty of the harvest implies good wishes.

Usually made of ash or white oak, a hay fork takes about three weeks to make. Starting with a single suitable piece of wood, two cuts are made in one end, equal to the length of the tines. The piece is soaked in hot water, after which wedges are inserted in the cuts, causing the wood to separate into tines. The wood is dried and then the tines are sanded into shape.

The fork is resoaked in hot water and then put in a jig, where it remains for about two weeks to give it its lovely curving shape. Finish sanding follows and a hole is drilled in the handle for hanging.

Harbor Farm's hay forks are supplied in the natural wood, but may be stained, sealed, and polished or oiled.

Wooden Hooks:

Our old favorites – our wooden hooks. We first came across them in Amish country, where they were, and still are, used to hang harnesses. Quite apart from their wonderful practicality, they are most attractive in their solid simplicity. Today, we have them just about everywhere in our home – on the kitchen door for coats that would otherwise be left on a chair, in the closet for hats, on the wall of the garage for storing big garden tools and hoses, and in the work room where ribbons and baskets are hung. We know others who use them for hanging up bicycles, sailing gear, fishing rods, and, of course, harnesses. They look just as wonderful as they are practical. And they make imaginative gifts.
