The metalDINE story:
it all began with a birthday card…
made out of aluminum.
tim knew keva liked getting birthday cards, but being a metal guy and not a paper guy, he decided to work in his preferred medium: metal.
then tim and keva became parents. so, tim made keva a aluminum pendant with son #1’s name stamped into it. then came son #2 and another pendant. then a chunky circle necklace. then a ring, then his brothers wedding ring.
keva wore her pendants all the time. then her sister wanted one. soon her friends wanted one. so tim made a few more and on and on it went until one day, keva’s sister, aimee, started getting orders for more name pendants. lots of orders. so tim and keva decided to make it official.
