I was invited to submit 2 photographs of my handcrafted sterling silver jewelry for the June edition of Our State magazine.  They are doing a story that celebrates wedding anniversaries and silver is the traditional gift for the 25th anniversary.  One of the editors found my website on the computer and especially liked the dogwood flower pin that I make, since it is the NC state flower.  I brought one that I made especially for this story and also a trillium pin that I had made for my wife, Nancy, for our 25th anniversary in August 14, 1996. Both pieces are featured on pages 174 & 175.  

   I was so pleased and honored to be selected by this beautiful magazine!!  Readers from all over North Carolina & subscribers from elsewhere in the U.S. will now see some of my finest work!
