STICK TAC TOE!
Very popular right now are the STICK TAC TOE sets. We completely sold out of these fun sets at our recent show in Roseville. We have filled all of the orders taken at the show and are ready to have them delivered. More will be available at our next show. Stay tuned!

The Process
The process of designing is a complicated one. Or is it? Everyone interprets "art" differently. If that were not the case, the world would be pretty dull. The process of creating the frames that we make is fairly simple. We find sticks that have a unique feature, we cut them up and we begin placing them on a pre cut wood frame. The end result is NEVER the same, but for us, that is what makes it so creative!
Oak trees, Cottonwood, and Elm are all readily available in the Northern California area that we live in. On a recent trip to visit my daughter and her family, we discovered a huge Pine tree that didn't mind one bit tha twe used some of it's fallen branches to create a few more frames this weekend. We love how both sides of the sticks can be used, including some of the other natural items found when cutting the limbs into sticks. Seeds, leaves, even pods can be utilized in this fun art.
