Shown at right our three of our most popular Fancy Door Hangers. They all start at the bottom with a #1 bell which is aproximately 1-1/8 inches in diameter, and the bells get progressively larger as they go up the tapered body of the hanger.

One of a kind Wall Hangers

This one was a fun project!

We worked closely with the customer on this one to design a one of a kind wall hanger for their Southwest style home. They gave us a rough idea and concept drawing and then we worked out the details over the course of several months and many telephone calls and E-mails. Before proceeding I made up 6 concept sketches, using different designs and combinations of materials before we settled on the one you see here.

This beautiful rustic wall hanger is almost 3 feet in length and 10 inches wide. We used Chestnut English Bridle Leather for the body, doubled and hand laced together with hand dyed Kangaroo lace imported from Australia.

The cording, top and bottom, is 100% Mohair Wool Cinch Cord. The ends of the lower cords were hand wrapped with matching cotton cord and then hand frayed at varying lengths to soften the bottom of the piece.

The Solid Brass Sleigh bells Ranged in size from #1's to #4's in the center.

This is an excellent example of the custom work we can do for you. If you have an idea for something unusual or unique give us a call, or E-mail us, and we would be happy to make you a unique one of a kind piece like this.
