Live on Whatnot · Sundays · 5:30 PM PT

Wood and moss, made live.

We're a Canadian father & son shop in British Columbia. We cut calm, quiet wall pieces on our CNC (a painted tray of preserved moss and a removable wood design plate) and build them on camera every week.

Next live show

Sundays at 5:30 PM Pacific on Whatnot.

Illustrations · finished pieces vary with the wood and moss

The live show

Chat picks it. DAD cuts it. It sells before the show ends.

Every show is a real build, start to finish, on camera. Pull up a chair, vote in chat and bid on the finished piece.

  1. Chat picks the plate

    Vote on the design and the tray colour, or suggest the word we engrave on it.

  2. DAD cuts it live

    The plate comes off our CNC while Jax runs Mission Control and walks through the toolpath.

  3. Moss and finish

    The plate is set into its moss-filled tray and checked over. Only pieces that pass get the DAD APPROVED stamp.

  4. It sells on the spot

    The finished piece goes up for auction at the end of the show, with ready-made pieces in between.

Who's on camera

A two-person crew

Host · Mission Control

Jax

Runs the show, the screens and the chat. He explains one technical idea per build, then gets out of the way so you can watch the cut.

The maker

DAD

Safety glasses, mask and ear defenders, every show. He doesn't say much. When a piece is right, you'll get a thumbs-up and the stamp.

The piece

Two parts, one quiet object

A 10-inch tray, painted and filled with preserved moss, holds a removable wood plate. The openings in the plate frame the moss beneath.

  • A painted tray in a quiet, natural palette.
  • A wood plate cut on our CNC and finished by hand.
  • Preserved moss: no water, no sunlight, no fuss.
  • Also in the shop: soundwave art with a hidden NFC tag. Tap your phone to hear it.

The shop

Questions

Good to know

Is the moss alive?

It's real moss, preserved. It isn't alive, so it needs no water and no sunlight. Keep it indoors, out of direct sun and away from heaters, and never water or mist it.

How do I watch or buy during a show?

Shows run on Whatnot. Follow @mossandsons there to get a notification when we go live. You'll need a free Whatnot account to bid or buy during the show.

How do I order without a live show?

Pick a piece in the shop and check out securely through Stripe by card, Klarna or Affirm. For the soundwave piece, tell us your song, sound or quote at checkout. We email you within 2 business days to confirm timing.

Why does my piece look a little different from the pictures?

The images on this site are illustrations. Preserved moss is natural and wood grain is never the same twice, so colour and texture vary from piece to piece. That's part of it.

Where do you ship?

We ship from British Columbia, within Canada only for now: Canada Post Expedited is a flat $27. Free local pickup is also available at checkout, and we'll message you to arrange a time. Every piece is made to order.
