Tree Men by Pooktre

Tree shaping is the lengthy, but rewarding process of sculpting trees as they grow to predetermined designs. Once grown, the trees are harvested to create unusual indoor furniture, or left growing to make striking additions to the garden. Peter Cook and Becky Northey have grown mirrors, coffee tables, chairs, candelabras, and the wonderful living tree men in their Queensland property over the last 10 years. The quirky shapes and flowing lines would certainly not look out of place in a faerie castle, providing you are patient while they grow!
