Kat, Sarah and Dan create our unique ceramic tiles. We start with a block of wet clay, sending it through a slab roller to create a uniform thickness.ย Cutting out flowers, leaves, bugs and various sizes of dots from these slabs comes next.ย The tile shapes go through a multiple glazing and firing process which includes both high and low temperature firings so the tiles are made impervious, brightly colored and finely detailed.ย Each year we try to incorporate additional designs to include with the standard garden flower theme โ we have quail, songbirds, butterflies, lizards, owls, trout, and lots of other designs in the works at all times.
Harry and Chad cut, shape and weld steel into patio tables, coffee tables, end tables and wall frames, all designed to accept our mosaic tile designs. The frames are then either sent out for a protective powder-coat finish or sprayed with automotive clear coat. After Kat and Sarah lay out the design, the tiles are glued and then grouted with epoxy grout to protect against cracking, fading or staining. If the item needs to be shipped to its new home, Chad builds a custom sized wooden crate to ensure it arrives safely.
