Little
John's Brooms are 100% handcrafted; he does not use machinery. The
rustic brooms are made from all natural broom corn and hand
selected handles of varying types of wood. He harvests many of
the handles and has grown some of the broomcorn himself. As a result
each broom has it's
own personality. John is always on the
look out for the perfect piece of wood for broom handles. Some are
adorned with carvings and others are made with shed antlers and
bones. Art brooms are made from a wide variety of found objects
as well as other natural materials. Brooms can also be handcrafted to order,
if you have a special piece of wood or other material John can make your broom to
order; he can tye a broom to almost anything. He can also attach new broomcorn to your old favorite worn
out broom!!

"Thank
you for making a round broom with a Hawthorn handle for me. It
will be treasured."
"I
just rec'd my darling pot scrubbers and are absolutely in love with
these little pieces of straw sculpture. I think I will just put
them in a beautiful glass bowl and display them and gaze at their
simple beauty. They are too precious to use!!! I am grateful to
those who still make things with 2 hands."
