Making a mosaic today. Twelve more to go.

Fifteen years ago we collaborated with a local architect, Steven Ginn, to create this spectacular kitchen remodel. The creative ideas pushed the envelope and tested our skills and knowledge of our product like never before. Today … the house is being torn down to build a new one in its location among the coveted lots in the Loveland area. As a craftsman, it’s your hope that something you’ve created with your hands will outlast you and generations after you so future owners can have something unique that no one else has and they can appreciate the hard work that went in to create it. Unfortunately, this piece of artwork will slip into anonymity and soon will be rubble in the landfill. There’s more information in the comments.

Just started working on my last concrete project. Strictly tile and stone work from here on out.

Here we go again! I’ve had to deal with this more than once. I order material for a job, pay for it in advance, and then several weeks later I’m invoiced for sales tax because the warehouse forgot to charge me. Apparently no one owns their mistakes anymore. There’s no shame in asking a customer to pay for your mistakes. Since when do I get to determine when I pay sales tax for a retail purchase? I’m not tax exempt.
