Beautifying your Home with Additon of Ornamental Iron

Guest Blogger #392, Entry #987, March 1, 2012

There is nothing more rewarding for me, then taking a piece of metal and turning it into a piece of art.  It does not matter if the piece is ornamental or functional, it reflects strength,  beauty and permanence.  I have worked with other medium but it’s iron that is my passion, it flows, bends and curls and with experience you can do almost anything you want with it.  Taking your idea and making it into a great design that fits your needs is my specialty.

Beautify your outdoors with ornamental iron

Ornamental iron in your home shows your unique taste, and with the right design you will have something that is beautiful, warm and romantic.  Your family and friends will have a lifetime of memories gathering around your personalized piece.  Whether it be something simple as iron hand railing, custom made garden gate, or a one of a kind plant stand, it all adds up to beauty and value for your home.  A good iron piece reflects strength, pride and character and when taken care of properly, it will last a lifetime.

I started welding when I was in High School, it was fun and I enjoyed the hands on class experience.  But my true love at the time was art class.  My art teacher could see good in most everything I did and that’s where my artistic talents truly began to take off. I went to vocational school for welding and after that I did factory work where I learned different techniques used in manufacturing.  Today I incorporate these techniques into my designs.
