–woodwork at Ramona Paloma studios?

Yes, RP Studios is venturing into handmade wood frames with a bit of personalization added in.

We have to thank our friend, Jean for this idea.  After arriving home with a few newly-acquired tiles of ours–she felt like they may not stand out enough on the walls of her beautiful craftsman home with the rich woodwork everywhere.  So she found lovely wood frames for the tiles to give them some….oooommpf!

It hit Tracy and I like…Eureka!   Indeed, some of our pieces would lend themselves wonderfully to a warm wooden home to sit in.

We began with drawings, discussions, mock-ups etc.   (see below)

That’s the interesting thing about the creative process–sometimes you’re so invested in one particular thought process, that you might miss a simple idea floating around nearby.   That’s the beauty of friends–they say, ” I love that thing–can I have it this way…?” …and a new idea is born.  Thanks Jean!

By the way…final product to follow tomorrow.
