We Create Instant Curb Appeal. Welcome Home.
About Us:
Howdy! We are a father-daughter duo creating beautiful steel products deep in the Heart of Texas. Hal has owned a welding and masonry business for over 40 years and Holly is an experienced interior designer living in Austin. Everything in our shop is made in-house at our studio in Georgetown, TX (located 20 miles north of Austin)
We are the original designers and makers of steel wall planters with magnetic numbers and our popular Mod Mettle product line. Please don't be fooled by the other makers who have copied our original designs! Thanks for supporting originality and creativity.
Our Finishes:
We construct our products out of steel and weld everything by hand.
Rust:
This is our original and most popular finish. It is a hand-finished and sealed rust patina that is achieved through our secret recipe of chemicals that speed along the oxidation process. Due to the nature of this medium and the hand-finish we provide, unique variations will occur. Please note, continued rusting will occur, the sealant used will slow the process but will not eliminate it. We mix our own rusting product in-house and are not using the chemicals you can buy over the counter. Those rust finishes will peel and bubble over time but our rust finish will not. Also, our rust finish is sealed with a matte sealant so it's a more natural rust appearance. (ie, no glossy, artificial look - it's truly gorgeous!)
We have designed our plaques, planters and mailboxes with the protection of your wall in mind. Our wall-mounted designs limit the amount of exposure the metal has with your wall. Small square tubing runs along the back edge(s) keeping the planter/plaque from lying directly on the wall. Silicone ‘bumpers’ are provided where the metal touches the wall and we treat our hangers with a painted anti-rust finish to further prevent any rust stains.
Black:
This is a powder coated matte black finish with a slight texture. It blends well with any style or decor and stands up to the elements.
Brown:
This is a powder coated dark chocolate brown finish. It has a matte finish and contains subtle light brown flecks. It looks great with bronze fixtures and will stand up to the elements.
