the DINE lovers

tim dine keva dine

by day tim dine is a Senior Fabricator & Weldor for the automotive and design industry and keva dine owns and operates the TKDAinc. companies

by night they are the husband and wife design team: metalDINE

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. who knew such a tuff weldor guy could be so romantic? well, keva did.

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.

we love making these pendants for you. we love hearing your story. we love being a small part of your love and your life. thank you for sharing with us.

xoxo metalDINE

“I love my pendant.  It means a great deal to me.  It’s one of the best birthday presents I’ve ever gotten.  On the back is my birthdate.  I love how the pendant looks and how it feels.  And it’s so special that it was made just for me!”
