Although the Metalsmithery retail shop isn't open as yet, plans and drawings for a variety of metal creations are excitingly being gathered and - well - created and sold.
They say that dentists don't necessarily have good teeth, or hairdressers great hair. Builder's own homes are never finished. And there's always an eternity of work in a professional gardener's home garden. So is the case with our metalwork. Although we are metal fabricators and manufacturers, we seldom have the time to make beautiful steel works for our own home.
Being garden lovers ourselves, it was frustrating to see a series of garden arches designed for a glass artist sitting temptingly on the workshop floor. How easy it would have been to find a place in our own garden, dig holes and cement the arbours in. What a pleasure it would have been to select fragrant climbing roses to create a blossomed tunnel!
Alas, it's not our time yet, but yours.
In the meantime, we can dream and plan and plot.
