Lake Maps and other things

We are always looking for new and innovative products to represent on our PatioandYards website. As mentioned in earlier post, we travel to a lot of industry shows to seek out what we consider unique and well made items that we would be proud to offer on our website. What a surprise it was when we discovered a very small family run business right in our own home town that makes laser cut wooden lake signs. 

One of our best selling items over this past Christmas season was undoubtedly our Wooden Laser Cut Lake Maps. These beautiful works of art make not only great Christmas gifts, but are perfect anytime of the year for anyone living on any body of water, waterway or coastline anywhere in the nation What a beautiful home accent that can be the center piece on any wall!

        Each map is individually made and the natural wood grain in the wood is enhanced by a hand rubbed stain and then followed by three coats of lacquer creating a magnificent finished product. Our customer can choose to receive it with a beautiful wood frame or without.

        During the initial process our customers are asked if they would like certain points of interest included in the map, such as the location and name of marinas, parks, recreation areas, etc. We can also have their personal family names etched onto the map and even provide a Swarovski Crystal that can be added to show where their home is located.

        We live on Lake Norman in North Carolina, and our Lake Norman Wood map hangs right over our fireplace in the living room. It’s gorgeous and when friends 1^st come to our house we invariably end up in front of the map pointing out where we live and then tracing out the route that we’ll take to say a restaurant out on the lake.

        By the way, the lake maps come in several different sizes and we can even have them made up from 23” x 15” up to about 6 ft. x 4ft. See picture!

        On another note, we just opened another website where we are offering hospital and waiting room furniture. Once again, we found another manufacturer right here in our home town that just started producing what we are calling Healthline Furniture. So if you are visiting your local Doctor’s office, hospital or Urgent Care facility and you notice that their waiting room furniture is looking tired and worn out, we appreciate it if you could direct them to www.healthlinefurniture.com .

Thanks, you guys are Great!! Keep Warm!
