Wood ...

HeartFreek's Challenge "Wood".

I've had a lengthy hair appointment this evening (to colour in the grey bits!). So this is a quick indoor blip. It is a gift I received from Mam and Dad from their recent cruise around the Baltic. They purchased it in Tallinn in Estonia. It is made from Juniper wood. Juniper is most famous for having its berries used in Gin making. The wood is renowned for its unique colours and patterns and is often used for kitchen items as heat makes its aroma stronger and is said to help fight coughs and colds. I had no idea wood could provide so much, and mine is in the shape of a heart so it's right at home here ...
