SOME PEOPLE DECORATE FOR HALLOWEEN. OTHERS PREPARE FOR BIGFOOT.

Pumpkins? Sure. Skeletons? Nothing wrong with those. But what about a little advance warning that something large, hairy, and notoriously camera-shy might be wandering through your property?

Our Bigfoot Crossing designs are for the folks who appreciate a little mystery, a little humor, and the possibility that Sasquatch might be closer than we think. Besides, if Bigfoot ever does show up at your house, wouldn't it be nice if he knew he was welcome? Or at least that somebody was expecting him?

We aren't saying Bigfoot is real. We're just saying we've never seen him shopping at a big-box home décor store.

YOU DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TO FIND US AT A VENDOR MARKET!

We love getting out to markets and festivals, meeting people, and showing off what we've been making. But we also know that sometimes you just want to wander into a shop, look around, and see what catches your eye. Fortunately, you can find Trentheim Designs at several retail locations around North Carolina!

Two places worth visiting are:

The Studio
106 W. Chatham Street
Apex, NC

The Stables Marketplace
11 S. Main Street
Franklinton, NC

Both are wonderful places to discover local makers, unique gifts, and things you probably didn't know you needed until you saw them.

We're grateful to the shops that make room for small businesses like ours. Supporting a local shop often means supporting a whole collection of independent makers at the same time.

And that's something worth celebrating.

Wood, acrylic, leather, and metal all have something in common: we work with them at Trentheim Designs. But that's about where the similarities end.

Wood has grain, character, and a tendency to remind you that no two pieces are exactly alike. Acrylic offers an entirely different set of possibilities. And metal? Well, metal brings its own challenges to the party.

One of the interesting things about laser engraving is that the material itself plays a major role in how a project turns out. Sometimes the design is the easy part. Figuring out exactly how to make it happen is where the real work begins. Fortunately, we rather enjoy that part.

What's your favorite material for handmade gifts or decorations?

HollyFest returns to Holly Springs on Saturday, October 31, bringing together local makers, artists, small businesses, food vendors, and plenty of activities for the whole family.

Meanwhile, the Trentheim Designs workshop is keeping busy with fall and holiday creations. There are ornaments to make, designs to finish, displays to organize, and always another idea competing for space on the workbench.

That's the fun—and occasionally the chaos—of running a small creative business.
When you're browsing a maker market, what usually catches your attention first? Holiday decorations, something for your home, a unique gift, or something completely unexpected?

Every tabletop gamer has experienced it. You need a 15 or better. You pick up your favorite d20, give it a little encouragement, and roll.

Natural 1.

Okay. Everybody has a bad day. Next roll? Another 1.

At some point, you have to accept that the dice are doing this deliberately.
Fortunately, Trentheim Designs has a solution: Dice Jail. A place for those troublesome dice to contemplate their poor decisions while the rest of the party gets on with the adventure.

Will incarceration improve their behavior? Probably not. But at least you'll feel better.

What's the worst streak of bad rolls you've ever experienced?

There's something about a good vendor market that you just can't duplicate online.

Sure, we love making things. We love seeing an idea go from a sketch to a finished product. But one of the best parts of taking Trentheim Designs on the road is watching people discover our work.

Sometimes someone spots exactly what they've been looking for. Sometimes they find something they didn't know existed. And sometimes a conversation begins with, "I have a really strange question..." (Those are often our favorite conversations.) Every market teaches us something about what people enjoy, what catches their attention, and what we might want to try making next.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to visit local makers, ask questions, and support small businesses. You help keep the creative wheels turning.

Tomorrow.

Trentheim Designs is headed to Charm at the Farm —and this isn't a little Saturday market.

Southern Charm brings together hundreds of makers and small businesses, along with food trucks, live music and thousands of people for one enormous day at Farmington Dragway.

We'll be there with a booth full of TD creations, including plenty of favorites and some newer things we've been working on.

Come spend the day wandering, eating, listening to music, supporting small businesses and finding something you absolutely did not intend to buy when you left the house.

We'll help with that last part.

Southern Charm at the Farm
Saturday, October 3 • 9 AM–4 PM
Farmington Dragway • Mocksville, NC

Come find Trentheim Designs and say hello!

What are we bringing to Southern Charm at the Farm ?

That's becoming an increasingly dangerous question.

We're packing Trentheim Designs favorites, some newer creations, gifts, home pieces, things for runners, things for gamers, things involving Bigfoot because apparently we have standards to maintain… and whatever else manages to escape the workshop before we close the trailer.

That's one of the things we love about Trentheim Designs: our booth doesn't fit neatly into one category.

So whether you're shopping for somebody else or employing the highly respected “I didn't know I needed that until I saw it” method of shopping for yourself, come take a look.

Saturday is getting close.

This is what event week looks like at Trentheim Designs.

The lasers run. The tables slowly disappear under finished products. Boxes start multiplying. Somebody realizes we should probably make six more of that thing we only have two of.

And all of it is headed toward one goal: Southern Charm at the Farm this Saturday.

One of our favorite things about making what we sell is that nearly everything on our tables started right here in the TD workshop as raw material, an idea and a design on a computer. Then we get to watch the lasers turn that idea into something real.

This week, they're going to be busy.
Very busy.

Something BIG is coming

The lasers are going to be busy for the next week.

On Saturday, October 3, Trentheim Designs is heading to Southern Charm at the Farm in Mocksville—and this one is BIG.

Hundreds of makers and vendors, food trucks, live music, and an entire day devoted to wandering around finding things you didn't know you needed until you saw them.

We're bringing plenty of Trentheim favorites, but we're also using it as an excuse to make some new things.

Because apparently taking the sensible amount of inventory to a large event isn't really our style.

Saturday, October 3 • 9 AM–4 PM
Farmington Dragway • Mocksville, NC

More next week as we get closer!
