“Wonderfully unique; beautifully made”

This kitten box is amazing! It is beautifully weighted and sturdy, and exquisitely carved, and feels wonderfully smooth in my hands. I love the cats peaceful expression, with his watchful eyes, perfectly pointed cat ears, and sweeping white whiskers. The greenish and red base of the box is the perfect complement to the black top, and really makes the piece stand out. I love the quality of the box as well. The top fits the base perfectly -- sliding smoothly into place over the carved inner rim. And there is plenty of room inside to store special somethings. I have already ordered another piece from Anna, and cant wait for it to arrive!

“Love these fish ornaments!”

These fish ornaments are so much fun. I havent decided how many I am keeping for myself. I plan to share them with the store associates where I buy my freshwater fish for my aquariums. These are prefect! I know they will love them.

"One thing I have come to love about carving is that there is no waste of wood. Every small piece of wood can be used to create small creatures."

"The skill to design is inborn. I can create sketches of styles for fabric before sending them to the seamstress and I'm also particular about... read more
