Meet the Maker

Some gifts are given for a moment. Others become part of a lifetime.

A simple cross, handmade with care, can carry something greater than itself: faith, love, and the memory of the person who placed it in your hands.

Hi, I'm John. I've been bending and wrapping horseshoe nail crosses by hand since the early 2000s, and I've made thousands of them at my bench in Hickory, North Carolina. They're made to be more than something you wear. They're made to hold a story. Your story.

A gift of faith. A gift of love. A gift that can live through generations.

Blessings, John
