Tink's began many years ago and is now located in a home studio. Stained Glass, copper and silverplate metalsmithing, a little painting, and some woodwork are all a part of Tink's Studio. Found objects are often incorporated into stained glass and metal work and constitute the rationale behind "80% of my products are made by me."
Stained Glass panels and decorative objects that include garden art, bugs, and suncatchers are just a part of the menu. Silverware (really silverplate), vintage jewelry, and brass findings are incorporated into many of the non-traditional forms that exit the studio: crosses, bugs, dragonflies, plant stakes, hooks, hangers and what-nots. The list is an ever-changing one that develops and expands.
Copper is a favorite for lamps, clocks, spoons, and small objects. Most address the style of the Arts & Crafts Movement with a bend here and there that keep Tink's current. The larger pieces like lamps and clocks are limited as they are quite time-consuming and expensive to make.
