The Tip is 'City Magazines' I was in the magazine section recently and saw the Indianapolis Monthly. The cover title read "Made In Indiana." I read the article and was amazed that all sorts of things were being made in the state. This is contrary to what most American's believe. Most of us think everything is made overseas. We still make the majority of what we consume and our buying tips we call Little Secrets help you realize that. Being from Indiana, I decided to visit several of the referenced web sites and I am proud to say I have purchased some of the best products ever. All thanks to the "City Monthly Magazine". Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Pinwilz Framing and Crafts Pinwilz Framing Owner, Bev Heldman comes from a long family tradition of wood working. Her Paw Paw was a wood worker and bee keeper in Old Fort since the early 1900's. Bev's fondest memories of her childhood are from the hours spent in the shop seeing projects come to life and smelling the fresh cut wood. Bev will tell you, that wood working is in her soul and it is a passion that cannot be trained. A successful mixed media craftsman herself, Bev for many years owned and operated McDowell Counties most successful privately owned art and hand craft gallery, TAAS Gallery until the great recession pummeled the business. Only faith, strong belief and relentless positive thinking have allowed Bev to push her business into it's newest era. Pinwilz Framing is actually a throw-back to it original roots. In 1989 Pinwilz Framing opened up shop in Oliver Springs, TN. Now many years later, the specialty framing name reemerges. Over the past 20 plus years, Bev has been concentrating on many mediums for art and crafts. Her vast knowledge of wood, presentation and attention to detail assures that your project with Pinwilz will be done to your satisfaction. Bev also does commissions and has a thriving little consignment gallery of other local hand crafter's from the area. Many of the artisans are very loyal to the Heldman's and have been with them since first opening TAAS Gallery in 2008. Sons C & C Heldman have both shown interest in the family business and who knows, one day, maybe they will take it to the next level. |
