Fall days and Touch Wood Rings

Fall is floating her paintbrush over the aspen leaves and willows, and it has begun.
October on the meadow. Our favourite time of year.


We took time away from the homestead in September. David was scheduled for a long awaited back surgery. We were gone quite a bit longer than we anticipated but we are so pleased with the outcome of what appears to have been a very successful surgery.
And we are very happy to be home on the meadow again. The big city is a tad overwhelming to us these days, even though I lived there for more than a decade in my twenties and thirties...

Here are some photos of rings that David has created over the past few months and a few pics of fall days on the meadow.

Rosewood friends

Often our conversations with people start months before the work actually begins and so it's always gratifying to hear back from folks after our work is done. I get pretty attached to folks while chatting with them over a period of months and David develops a special relationship with people through making their rings. Dani and Schmick have been in our lives for awhile ~ another couple of wonderful people whose kindness humbles us and whose friendship we value.

Upon receiving their rings, Dani wrote ~ "I was wondering how you would package our rings and I was very pleasantly surprised to see the beautiful card they were in. The rings are absolutely beautiful. They feel and look very elegant on our fingers. It's kinda funny but, in the pictures you don't get a sense of how delicate they actually are and I can't imagine the skill, care, and patience it must take to make them. They are perfect.

Since we both make a living with our hands, we are having a friend weave hemp necklaces for us to put the rings on while we are at work so now we are searching for some nice wood beads to put in the necklace. We would like to thank you, not only for all your time, effort and love that you put into this process, but also for being the beautiful people you are and for providing people with such a fantastic way to symbolize their commitment and love.

Words cannot express how much I have enjoyed this process starting from the moment I found your website and instantly knew I was in the right place. You will always be in our hearts."
