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.


The following is a reply from Pinwilz Framing and Crafts to our question – "Are your products Made in the USA?"

How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.

We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.

To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.

What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
