►ABOUT LOLA: This heart shape is very special to me. It is named after my first granddaughter born in January 2022. LOLA means Lots Of Love Always. ►LIVE EDGE WOOD: All wood is locally-sourced and acquired from weathered-down trees found in Maricopa County, AZ. Acquiring these logs from homeowners and tree services allows me to create unique hand-crafted 100% sustainable, repurposed live edge wood art design. All art is made in North Peoria, Arizona. The natural edges, wavy grain lines, quilting, unique colors, knots and bark inclusions are the characteristics that define live edge wood. Each wood slab has specific feature and will vary from log to log milled. The pictures shown on this page is evident of the varying difference in grain patterns and characteristics of the wood. This is what makes live edge wood so distinctive and special.
