A peek at the inner workings of Grah-Toe Studio...


We thought perhaps some of you would be interested in the process we go through to get you your pretties for your hair! This is part of my sanding area , we do  alot alot alot of sanding! I wear a mask and safety glasses and do the major sanding  here, then it goes to hand sanding.
The wood does NOT start out looking like you see it , it looks more like this...


WE cut the wood, then lay out the forks to fit the wood grain, get the best pattern and make sure the grains are not going to weaken the fork. This part takes alot of planning and knowing of wood sometimes to get it right, and we don't always get it right!!!
IF you are interested in more of the process, part 2 is coming up next....
Love to you all, Kimi
