DiVine Timber Designs is a local business utilising salvaged timber to create unique yet practical items for the home.
My name is Serena Vine I am a mother of two who has always been in close association with handcrafted timber furniture production, watching my father and brother create amazing pieces of furniture from scratch, from collecting logs, milling timber, designing and creating furniture and sending Australia wide. With the knowledge I have gained I have decided to start my own business making smaller items such as cheese boards, chopping boards, clocks, mirrors and the odd coffee table. I use only salvaged timber and mainly Camphor Laurel as it is the best timber to be used for anything associated with food due to its natural antibacterial properties. The timber also has the added bonus of having amazing colour and grain and great variations from tree to tree. It is both durable and hardwearing and if looked after properly can last for generations. Being classed as a weed in Queensland, Camphor Laurel should be removed from properties to stop it spreading. This is my way of both recycling something that is unwanted and creating a business for myself.
I very much appreciate all the support I can get in starting and operating my business, and I aim to satisfy all my customers demands by both creating items to order and supplying a quality product for personal use or as a beautiful practical one of a kind gift.
