Ecoforge

EcoForge — Horseshoe Art & Decorations Growing up at the foot of the the Cuilcagh Mountains, rural life and farming have shaped everything I create. The rhythms of working land, fixing machines, and mending things are woven into my work. I am self-taught in welding and woodworking — on a farm, there’s always something that needs building or repairing, so those skills became second nature. The horseshoe is a powerful symbol of rural life — and because we use recycled shoes, it’s also a beautiful example of upcycling. After a horse has used a shoe, we clean it, rework it, and give it a new life as anything from a boot rack to a whimsical fairy door. A horseshoe, by nature, is built to last — so each piece I craft is intended as a “gift for life.” No two horseshoes are exactly alike, so every creation is unique, with its own character and story.

Air Dry Clay

Air dry clay is a soft, lightweight, non-toxic modelling material designed for ages 3 and up. It is easy to squeeze, shape, stretch, and mould, making it perfect for both fun play and creative projects. Available in a wide range of colours, most air-dry clays can be mixed together to create any shade or tone you need. Unlike traditional clays, air dry clay requires no baking or kilns. It naturally hardens when exposed to air, usually within 24 hours, leaving you with a long-lasting keepsake. When stored in airtight tubs, it remains reusable and ready for your next creation. Because it does not stick to hair, upholstery or carpets, air dry clay is a favourite among parents and educators. Air dry clay can be used to make models, characters, magnets, decorations, keyrings, name plaques, greeting cards, framed art, and even baby handprints or footprints. Its minimal shrinkage allows it to be used over lightweight armatures such as balloons. The possibilities are endless — the only limitation is your... More
