New Pics of Our Recent Custom Casting
Projects!
After recently finishing the custom pewter casting jobs for our customers
we've posted the new images on our NEW PICS
web page. The completed projects include the casting of military musket
rifles lead flint pads at Fort Snelling for the Minnesota Historical Society
and utility buttons cast in lead free pewter. The small 1/2" diameter pewter
buttons were created with four button holes during the casting process. We
also finished the latest edition of Raggedy Ann & Andy®
pewter figurine collectibles created especially for the national Raggedy Ann
& Andy® Festival in Arcola, Illinois.
The refined modeling of the original crude casting designs is apparent in
the unpainted versions of the figurines. The scope and range of our pewter
casting ability is shown in the examples of these quality custom projects.

personalized tapered candles for their wedding. Images of this special

Two Color
Script for Our Monogrammed Unity Candles!
We recently created a wedding candle for a couple in South Dakota that
asked us to create a monogram using two script colors. The ivory pillar
candle was engraved with Edwardian Script ITC and filled with Emperor's
Gold (DecoArt DA-148) and outlined with Dark Chocolate (DA-65). This two
color monogram design looks great and we will now offer this unique dual
color detail in the customer's color choices for future unity candle
orders. You may check out the images and details of this new design on our
Monogrammed Unity
Candle web page.

New Interactive
Monogrammed Unity Candle Web Page!
With the recent interest of our Monogrammed Unity Candles, we've
redesigned the web page to make it easier for couples to choose the features
and styles available for monogramming their unity candle.
All of our personalized monograms are permanently engraved into the candle
using a special engraving process, unlike other monogrammed unity candles
that use a preprinted clear acrylic label glued to the candle surface. The new
web page gives our customers 9 simple steps in designing and creating a monogram for
their personalized wedding candle. We've also grouped the images of finished
unity candles on another separate web page. If you need any assistance in
creating your memorable unity candle you may contact us by phone, e-mail, or
by submitting an ORDER form. |
