New Items in our Etsy Shops!

We have just listed some new items in our Etsy.com shops!

In our "GrizzlyMountainArts" shop we have listed two more of the vintage inspired needle minders. One is a beautiful Victorian Lady cameo and the other is a vintage inspired red hisbiscus cameo. Both of these needle minders have a turned piece of East Indian Rosewood that contains the back magnet.


The new listing in our "GrizzlyMountainCache" primitive supply shop is more of the unique seabeans. We use these in our work, but only your imagination can limit their use!

Space Shuttle Shuttle!


One of Dave's tatting shuttle customers asked him to create a special tatting shuttle to commemorate her daughter's acceptance into the space shuttle program. It turned out so well, and was such an unusual request, that I thought I'd share it with you!

Dave created this one of a kind post tatting shuttle from spalted maple with ancient mammoth ivory inlay. He uses a microscope to do the detailed scrimshaw art.

Cedar Acorn Frig Magnet


This is the second sweet little acorn frig magnet that Dave has made today! He turned it out of a beautiful piece of cedar, then burn-etched the detail on the acorn's cap. This little acorn measures about two inches in length by an inch and a half wide.

We use rare earth magnets in all of our refrigerator magnets which will hold much more than the usual crafting magnet.

This cedar frig magnet is for sale for $7.50 in our Etsy shop. If you would like to view this item, please click the link below.

Sweet Little Acorn Frig Magnet


Dave just came in from his workshop with this sweet little acorn frig magnet. He turned it out of olive green poplar wood, then burn-etched the detail on the acorn's cap. This little acorn measures just a little over an inch in length by a little over a half inch wide. A strong rare earth magnet has been inlayed in the top.

This little magnet is for sale in our Etsy.com shop for $5.00! If you would like to view this item, please click the link below.

Celluloid "Glacier Ice" Bobbin Tatting Shuttle


After a short respite from winter, it's back for a while here in central Oregon, so it's only fitting that Dave's next shuttle be named "Glacier Ice". The stunning tatted ice skates were tatted by Margaret Brown. These adorable gems arrived in the mail today! Thank you, Margaret!!

Dave carved this approx 2 1/2 inch "GLACIER ICE" celluloid bobbin tatting shuttle to bring out the beautiful patterns within. No two can come out the same. Change the angle of the light and you get pearly ice with blue threads through the shuttle. The bobbin is a common Singer which can be bought in packs of 4 at WalMart or similar store with sewing supplies. The drag on the bobbin can be adjusted with the brass screw axle to keep it from free wheeling. It has a #14 steel picot hook inset in the nose. It is initialed and dated by Dave, the maker.

This tatting shuttle is currently up for auction on Ebay. If you would like to view this auction, please click the link below.

GMA Signature Tatting Shuttle #2


Dave has just finished the second tatting shuttle of our new Grizzly Mountain Arts signature line, "Oregon Cascades", that was designed exclusively for our Etsy.com shop.

This 2 5/8 inch post style tatting shuttle was handcrafted from Oregon myrtlewood and has been burn etched with our Oregon Cascade logo. This shuttle has been signed and numbered by Dave.

While Dave will continue to make different tatting shuttles out of a variety of materials, GMA has selected Oregon Myrtlewood with Oregon Cascade logo for its sequence numbered signature tatting shuttles. What else could be more fitting than a tatting shuttle made in Oregon on Grizzly Mountain out of famous Oregon Myrtlewood?
