random love
I have to admit something. I love some of my switch plates more than others...making them, that is.
I'm always thrilled when someone orders the Bronze Ginkgo design, because I love the process used in making this one. It has a randomness, unpredictability that I look forward to each time I make them.
The design came about when I did a custom order for a woman who had a Craftsman home. I did a little research and came up with the Ginkgo design. It was as if everything was aligned at the time, as it came together quickly and easily and best of all, she loved it.
Again, the Bronze Ginkgo switch plates are going to reside in a lovely old Craftsman style home. I just completed an order for a designer in California whose clients saw my switch plates and wanted multiples for their home. It was extra special making them, because the plates I covered were sent to me by the designer. They were the old fashioned push button type. (I had every intention of taking pictures, but after getting home from the post office realized I just plain forgot).
The fact that I forgot to take pictures, as I had intended, got me thinking. Perhaps the people that buy my switch plates, would take pictures of them in the rooms they were meant for, and send them to me. That's a lovely thought to end on.










Gorgeous lightswitch!
