Emily  Ford
​SheTurnsWood

Emily Ford  better known as Sheturnswood has been captivated by captive rings since 2015. She took up turning specifically to learn to make captive ring baby rattles because she had just had a new baby boy, who she felt deserved a very special hand made toy that could last for years. Not long after she turned her first rattle she fell in love with the art she began including bowls, ornaments, tops, pens, various forms of jewelry and art pieces. 

Shortly after she started turning she created an instagram page to show off her unique works, and you can really see her enchanting personality come through in each of her projects, the rest as they say is history. Sheturnswood has found her passion and hardly a day goes by Emily isn’t found out at her lathe covered in sawdust with a smile on her face, dimple to dimple! She lives in Clearfield, Utah with her husband, 4 children, two dogs, two cats and two lathes, and she still puts just as much heart and soul into her projects as the day she gave that special first rattle that started it all, to her son.
