When I have some downtime in the office, when I’ve got a problem I need to think through, or when I’m stuck in a zoom meeting, carving useful objects out of wood gives my hands something to do.

These little Coffee Paddles were designed by Josh Nava during his 365 Spoons Project back in 2014. It’s a simple way to make sure you’re not stuck up coffee creek without a paddle.

NOTE: Because these are hand carved, expect natural variations in wood grain patterns and minor differences in overall shape. Our carved items are sold with the facets from the carving process intact. They are then lightly sanded to smooth any roughness and coated with a natural Walnut Oil and Beeswax finish.

Wood selection is determined by the current availability of different woods, and while I can’t individually photograph and list each individual paddle, rest assured that you will be getting either a walnut or cherry paddle made from wood I sustainably felled right here on my farm.
