Purple Heart

purple <3

Danny, a forefather of Shwood, recently took a trip to Costa Rica for some Central American-splendor. Even there he did’t stray far from hard work– DG found this tree, the provider of Purple Heart wood… a wood that can also be found in the Shwood Shop, being carefully shaped to fit your face, style, and awesomeness. Kewllll!
