Hi Bruce,
Once again, you all never cease to impress. Your driveway stakes have arrived promptly, intact, and they are fantastic. The quality of your design and workmanship are really impressive. I had searched online for months trying to find decent driveway stakes without luck, then I stumbled across your listing and I am very glad that I did. If you can find a way to market your product more, with a higher profile on Amazon and eBay and the like I am sure that your sales would dramatically increase.
Thanks again for selling me such a great product !!!
Cheers,
Gerry  COKEYSVILLE, MD
( PS : If I were to tweak one thing, it would be to take 2 inches off the above ground portion of your stake and add it to the below ground portion for a sturdier placement in the ground. leaving the total stake length the same) Still the best stake out there !!! Thanks again !!! Gerry 
 

Just wanted to let you know that we received the trellises yesterday morning and got them installed immediately. They look great. Thanks so much. And thanks for getting them shipped as early as you did. Can you imagine? We would not have been able to finish the job today otherwise. I am grateful. 

Thanks again and will take some pictures to send.

Hi Bruce,

I'm thrilled that my front yard won't need to look like a construction site
every winter, with neon fiberglass markers everywhere.     Thank you! Christine,    Natick MA

Sorry for my delay.  In the middle of moving I didn't take time to let you
know we received our beautiful trellis.  My husband may have questions when
installing...hope not.  We will send a picture when it is up!

Bruce, happy new year! I love my herb stand. It is classy and practical. I will email you a picture of the finished product in the spring. I hope one day to stop by your business!

All the best,

Donna House


Thank you for your helpfulness and excellent product!

Dear Bruce

 I have finished installing the trellis and am very happy with the results take a look at the PHOTOS.  I would expect you will get more orders from this area due to this installation, in fact, I am considering ordering a larger rectangular one maybe 4 feet by 4 feet for the back and if some of my other friends who see this and like it want to order together maybe we can save money on the shipping cost thanks a lot and let me know if you need anything else from me. 
Regards,

Your liners are fabulous and fit perfectly. Hope we can work on another project in the near future. Thanks immensely!

Here are a couple pictures of the trellis' we bought from you.  We love them and my landscaper was impressed too.  I will pass on your information to him.

 
Thanks, Roger  Goodlettsville TN
 

Hey Bruce,

The trellis worked out really great.  Those are climbing Mandeville's so they could reach the top by fall, but wanted to send you a shot when you could still see the trellis nicely. I'm a happy customer.  It was a pleasure doing business with you.  Thanks.

Hello Bruce,
The four cast aluminum door mats arrived yesterday, they look absolutely awesome!
Jeff  Denver Colorado

Hello Bruce,
 Received the trellis yesterday and it is just the quality I was expecting.  I bought Clematis to grow on it and I will send you a picture as soon as we install it. It will look lovely I am sure.
My container designer, Jennifer, was very impressed with the trellis as well.  She has several clients so I sent her the link so she can view your other products. 
Thanks again!

Bruce:
Thanks for all the help with this.  You guys have been great to work with.  I love dealing with the common carriers.  I’ll just hope the delivery logistics are a little better than usual.  I’ll drop you an email when the eagle has landed.
Stuart - Denver CO

 

Hi Bruce,

Last summer I ordered two 4’x8’ rubbed bronze trellis’s. We love them.  But, I wish I had ordered one more panel. I am wondering if you can make 2 units of 2’x8’ that I can add a panel to each side to make it longer?  Please let me know, and how much? I would need 12” “legs” to go into the ground for both pieces, so each 2’ panel can be cemented into the ground next to my existing 8’ trellis I have in the ground. I will send you a pic again in a separate email from my phone, so you can see.  Thanks.

 

You missed out on a horrible MI winter!

Hi,

Just sent you a bunch of pics!  Wanted to share a comment I made to my wife regarding the window boxes:
“Every house needs eyebrows!  These window boxes give our home the most beautiful eyebrows we’ve ever seen!”

Hi Bruce,
Going Back a few months I purchases three white trellis's from you. I never took the time to tell you how much I love them. They look great and my plants are really beginning to take hold of them. I often have neighbors stop by and ask about them or simply tell us how great they look. Next time you are in Miami Beach I hope you stop by and share a cocktail with us and enjoy the sunny weather as we admire your trellis's. 
Warmest regards,
Steven Oltman. (Miami Beach FL)

Got the trellises and they are perfect!  The one you modified with an additional piece on top is exactly what we wanted.  Will send a picture later.  Thanks again.

Best

Bruce, photos attached. Love the trellis's. Very nice work. Will get photos later when shade is better. Thanks, Wes  Lonview Texas

  Bruce, It is beautiful. Everyone loves it, we can't wait to install it as soon as the ground thaws! Thanks for everything, Coral

Bruce,
My client loves the trellis and I think it looks great too! 
I'm glad I found your website and will keep you in mind the next time I need "garden metalwork."

Hi Bruce

Yes, it arrived in perfect condition on Wed.  On Thurs. we installed it a thought we haven't planted the vines around it yet. It's beautiful and looks even better than I expected.
Thanks so much!
Kirvin Palm Springs CA

Bruce,

It is Eric  and Christine DeLeon.  Everyone that came into the courtyard loved the trellis system against the wall.  They are beautiful addition to the courtyard and house.

Now another question.  We are interested in an arbor to go into the back yard.  We have a brick patio area and there is a entrance into the house that has yard on both sides. We are interested in an arbor to go over this path.  The bottom distance would need to span 9 feet to give room to place the arbor into the ground without disrupting the brick work of the courtyard. The height of course to walk under and give room for the hanging of climbing plants.  Maybe made to be assemble when it get to be shipped.  It does not have to have that much depth to walk under but the ability to wind climbing plants, wisteria. 

We did like the design you have posted on your web, but I have faith in your imagination and designs.

I hope you can help.

Eric and Christine Columbus Ohio

Hi Bruce,
I love the trellises. I have attached a picture.

Yes, you guys did a masterful job!
I'll be in touch as soon as they're installed.
Have a nice evening.

Hi Bruce,
Great product, widow box installed easily with your excellent hints. I see I should have added a liner. Can you give me a quote on both the copper and galvanized steel (with the copper finish) liners in the size I need?

Thanks so much. This was a great buying experience.
Regards,
James Dunn
Hi Bruce,Here are a few pics of the trellises!  We love them!!

Hi Bruce,

Our posts arrived late today in pristine condition—nice packaging job! They are nothing short of spectacular. The finish is superb, quality is second to none, and their overall appearance is absolutely outstanding. Can’t wait to get them in the ground…

Thanks again. They are exactly what we wanted—perfect!

Hi Bruce,
It was a pleasure speaking to you also.  I wish all business owners were as
friendly as you are.  Yes, we have a little slice of heaven here in the
garden state. 
We really look forward to putting our new trellis to work.
Cheers,

Hello, Bruce -
I previously ordered a 4' x 8' aluminum wall trellis and love it.  I would like to order 5 more in oil-rubbed bronze to be hung vertically (4' across the top).  You included adjustable wall mounting brackets last time and those worked perfectly on the uneven surface so would like those again too.  I'm having trouble with the website so thought it be easiest to send an email to order.  Please email to me an invoice with the Intuit link and I'll get payment to you promptly.
Thanks for your help and enjoy working with you.  You have a great product!
 David Farrington Yates

I  received my trellis today and it's perfect for the spot.  Thank you so much.  Great packing, arrived undamaged.  Once we get it hung, I'll send a photo

Bruce--
'Just wanted you to know that I received the shepard hook this morning  and, immediately, tried it out on the deck.  It worked PERFECTLY!!!!  Thank you so very much with all the time and trouble that you went through to get it just right.  I certainly do appreciate it.
When I ordered from you last year through the web, I was nervous about just picking someone out of an online listing but you restored my faith in mankind!!!  I hope in the future we can continue to work together as I come up with "strange and unusual" things that I need.
Thanks again for all your trouble .... and patience!!!!!
Bill Tracy

Hi, Bruce.
We were finally able to complete our building restoration including the installation of the trellises.  Here's a picture as promised.  They look great and we've gotten lots of nice compliments from the public and our employees.
Have a terrific day!

Hi Bruce,

I just finished unpacking the trellis.  It looks great, and there was no damage at all in shipping.  Can’t wait to get the trellis hung, but it is going to be a while before I can conscript my son for the effort.  I will get you pictures as soon as the trellis is hung.

Best regards,

Stan

LOL- It's going to be nice to have items that didn't come from Home Depot in the yard. The house is Modern and deserves some custom work. I greatly appreciate your help, service and time. Thank you for doing what you do - custom work in a cookie cutter world!

Ron

Hello Bruce at Gardenmetalwork

Thank you for your reply to our questions. Winter Lodge  in Palo Alto CA is a ten minute walk from our home; we saw your product this morning and liked it very much. The folks, there, were complimentary about your company, how nice it was to deal with you.

The Fishers

Sorry for my late response, but I've been very sick all day. I'll be paying for these after I send this email. They are absolutely beautiful and I'm very excited and happy we could get this done. Its the biggest project I've ever done, but definitely worth it. Thanks for working with me on this. I really appreciate it. I'll definitely be in touch for any other projects. I have a couple in mind,

Kristin

I received my trellis today and it's perfect for the spot. Thank you so much. Great packing, arrived undamaged. Once we get it hung, I'll send a photo
Cindy O'Neil
 

We were so pleased with the 6 trellis we recently purchased, we would like to order 3 more.
The first would be identical to the 4 art deco trellis you recently finished. 6 feet high, 40 " wide, 17" legs, border around art deco, alien silver finish, 2 adjustable brackets. If you need any measurements I can provide them, the horizontal member about 2/3 up should line up with the other ones.
The other 2 would be custom versions of your 2 feet by 8 feet. We would like 2 feet by 11 feet, the 11 foot dimension is the vertical one, two fixed brackets per trellis at 18", and two adjustable brackets per trellis. The finish would be the textured black #83.
If you send me an invoice, i will pay for them and you can get started.
Don Heiskell

We are enjoying the beautiful flowers on the trellis.
We are so pleased with your work and it fit perfectly outside our "Birdcage".

Good Morning Bruce,
Just wanted to let you know the copper liner for my dry sink arrived yesterday afternoon. I am very happy with it. It fits perfectly. I have wanted a copper liner for it for many years and so glad to have one now.
Thanks and have a great day.

Well here's how it turned out...already have Confederate Jasmine growing on it....
Thanks again,

I'd be honored....it was a snap to install, the self tapping screws, the mounting gear.... really easy and so sturdy!

Hello Bruce,
Everything arrived today and looks great. We will put the window boxes up this weekend and send pictures.
Thank you very much, we are very pleased.

Hi Bruce!
I thought you might like to see some photos of the two new trellises mounted on the house. I have attached some photos with this e-mail. They look great! I reshaped the mounting brackets to work with the aluminum siding. I shortened the brackets one inch as the 3 1/2" depth let the trellises stick out too far from the side of the house; at 2 1/2" they are perfect. I also rebent the brackets to take the angle of the aluminum siding. We ran screws through the siding into the masonry wall behind the siding. The large front trellis has the two legs you made going down about 12" into the ground; they are sitting on two bricks buried in the ground. I also put a security cable from the bottom of the crazy trellis around the in ground pipe for my electrical service cable; I figured you would not want to have to remake that trellis anytime soon if somebody decided to remove it from the wall in the middle of the night. We are very happy with these trellises; you guys did a great job from start to finish and it was a true pleasure to have worked with you. Your workmanship is first rate! I am sure glad we found you online; it could not have worked out better!
Thanks, Bruce!
Sincerely,
Ted & Jane

Hey Bruce!! Hope you are doing well.  Not sure if you remember me, but we are the couple from Knoxville that ordered a couple of English design window boxes with copper liners.  We love them so much, we want to do another window.  Do you still have those measurements on file?  We need one the same size as the small one that you did for us.  Just let me know, if not, we can get up there and measure.  Thanks and hope you are doing well!!
Dena

Bruce,

It was great meeting you. I've got the trellis and the Gecko up in the back yard. I'll send you pictures after the plants go in. We love the trellis. 
Thanks,
Julie
 

Just wanted to let you know:  Got the trellis, it is great.  Many thanks! RANDY

Bruce,

The liners fit great. I delivered them on Monday. I sprayed them with a cold galvanizing paint which gave them the correct look.
My client was very pleased. Thanks for doing an excellent job!
I am going to try to get more business on metal liners.

Just wanted to say that we received the deck hook this morning.  It turned out just as we had wanted!

Thank you so much.

My wife is now "wondering" if you should order another one in preparation for next year.

Thanks again.  I'll let you know if we decide if we need another.

ps I purchased my driveway marker from you a number of years ago- looks as good as the day I received it!

Bruce

I received the boxes yesterday.  I love them.  The holes in the back are a little small so my husband will have to widen them.  I'll send you a pic when I have flowers in them.  I'm sure they'll look great.  I have a 1845 townhouse in Philadelphia.
 
Thanks again.

 Hi Bruce - Just wanted you to know how thrilled I am with the window boxes!  I'm not great with the camera but once I get them full of plants I'll try to send you a picture.  I'm penciling in more window boxes in the next budget! Thank you again - Jennifer Benz

Whoops… you are absolutely right, Bruce!   I love my reflectors… had thought I would put them away until the snow hits again next fall but I am enjoying them too much, and they help me confirm the pattern of where to turn into my driveway

(which is problematic)… thanks for the response and the comments.   Ann

 

Bruce,

They arrived today.  Installed and are brilliant.  What a terrific product!  My landscaper is in awe of your 4x8' trellis!  Thank you so much!  Jeannie

 

Hi Bruce,  The window boxes have been installed last week. They are perfect! Very nice with the architecture of the house. You will find enclose two pictures of the facade. Flower must be planted at that time, I will probably go there next week to see the complete work.

Thanks again - very professional job – may be they will need some for their summer house in Quebec or in Florida...

Bruce,

Thank you for taking the time to work the math on the phone with me to build us exactly what we are looking for that will fit the space perfectly. We are really excited for our project to be completed. We'll send photos once finished.
 Thank you again,
Matt

Bruce - Grid Trellis arrived yesterday, got installed and looks great. Just what we needed.

Hi Bruce:

Thanks!

Bruce - received my window boxes yesterday - Thank you so much - they look great! Hope that they last me a long long time - have a good summer and Thank You again.!

 Marieanne

The deck hangers arrived and they are FANTASTIC!! I have them hanging on my front porch with a hummingbird attracting plant and a hummingbird feeder on each one.

Would like some for my back porch but the railing is done differently there and is much too thick for the hangers.
Thank you,
Deborah

Thanks  so much!  looking forward to having something that will look nice and keep the trucks off our grass

Hi Garden Metalworks,

Back in 2005, when you were still Hansen Ironworks, we bought 6 of your beautiful window boxes for the front of our house. We have received tons of compliments on them!
 

 
Now we are redoing our fencing and wondered if you sold gates in the same Bellflower pattern?  We would need 3 of them shipped to the Los Angeles area. Two would be 4' wide and the third would be 3' wide. All would be 60" or more in height for building code purposes.

 
 

Bruce

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!!!!  EVEN BETTER THAN MY PHOTO!!! YOU'RE A GENIUS!!! Jason

Hi Bruce,

We got the window box liners yesterday. They fit well and look wonderful against the wrought iron. Thank you for a great product.
Lynne Nelson

Bruce
Thanks for the quick turnaround and the reminder.

Great markers, we have some construction starting next door, so looking forward to putting them up so folks won't park

Excellent!!!
Thank you very much!
-Pete

 

Awesome - thank you!!!

We got our window boxes!! They are beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Thanks for all your help!! Will be in touch. I'm sure we will have to have a couple more:-) have a nice weekend!! Dena

 

Wow – great service !! 

Thanks so much,

 Lori

Thanks very much.  I received the delivery on time. The workmanship is what I was hoping for.  Now I just have to wait until Spring to install it.  They could use a good company like yours in North Canton.

 

Bruce,

  Thank you for accepting the special order and for shipping quickly. This way I will still be able to beat the deep frost.  

Best Regards,

Craig

Bruce,
Just a short note to let you know that the liner fit perfectly and was
exactly what we wanted and needed. Thank you so very much!! I hope our
paths will cross again. If I get the opportunity I will certainly send
you business.
Thanks again!
Ken

Bruce,  We installed the trellis this past Sunday and it looks great!  Attached are two pictures of it.  Our building was built as a commercial building in 1839 in what was/is called the American Sector, upriver from the French Quarter.  It is the 2nd most historic neighborhood in New Orleans. We bought and renovated it in 1989 into 3 residential condominiums and a commercial condo on the main level...just like in the old days.  The area that the trellis is located is our car port and rear garden.  The grey cement square that you see behind the trellis is all that remains of a large shower area left from when this property was a skid row flop house...you don't even want to see what the building looked like when we bought it.  Any way, the sculpture in front of it is by Mark Chatterley and we now call her Katrina de Milo, as she used to have arms and  another figure on her shoulders, but, during Hurricane Katrina she was blown over and lost them.  We repaired her and have placed her in a place of honor... the pots will hold Confederate Jasmine and will cover the trellis with a beautiful curtain of green vines and fragrant flowers.
 
Thanks for the beautiful trellis and the quick, painless ordering!
 
Sincerely,
Richard Nesbitt

 

Hi Bruce,
Stickman arrived and has been mounted.
 I don't know if you are a Saturday Night Live watcher, but the skit about Pat was inspiration for our name of stickman.  We have named stickman "Chris" based on Pat and for St. Christopher the Patron Saint of Travelers to keep people from landing in our drainage ditch.
 Thanks for your creative work!
 Carol

Hi Bruce,
The yard markers are fantastic!!!  Here are some pictures.
Eventually I would like to put up a fence using black cast iron.  You can see from the pictures where I would like to put up the fence.
The fence would follow the same lines as the markers and maybe a little more.
Thanks!!!
-Pete

Hi Bruce, Just wanted to let you know the trellis arrived yesterday and I love it. You packaged it perfectly! Arrived with no damage and that says a lot. I've ordered several things lately (patio furniture) and it was damaged due to poor packaging. It's refreshing to see someone who knows what they're doing and obviously cares. If I need anything in the future, I'll be sure to give you a call! Thanks, Deborah

Hi Bruce,

In case I forgot to thank you, the window box liners arrived as promised last week and are gorgeous! We've planted them and as soon as the flowers look a little better, I'll send you a picture. It's been a pleasure doing business with your company.
Best regards,
Debbie Price
Thanks for letting us know.  We live on a narrow lane..it is a constant battle to keep cars and trucks off the lawn.  Your reflectors are beautiful...

Bruce, Re: 12 East 87th St. New York City NY

The window boxes have arrived.....wow, what a packing job!. 
They look fantastic, we have not installed yet and will send picture when they are done with plantings.

Hi Bruce,

I thought you’d get a chuckle at how good the trellises look, even in snow.  We had the biggest snowfall in over a100 years.  The picture is of the last one (I hope).  Spring is on its way now, and I hope my new roses for the trellises are too!

Cheers, Jean

Dear Bruce,

About 3 years ago I bought 4 metal window boxes from you.  I love them.  They make the front of my home look great and unique.

Yesterday a garden trellis, which served as a great privacy screen, blew down in a violent wind storm.  I was an "L" shape about 8 feet high and 12 feet long with a shorter 4 foot base of the "L".  It offered us a great deal of privacy in our backyard.  Because I am extremely lazy, I want to replace it with a non maintenance garden screen.

Thanks,

Marjorie

 I have received my liners and they are absolutely lovely. I couldn't be more pleased.  They got here so quickly too. Thanks again for all your help.

Take care,

 Georgie

Dear Bruce,
Thank you for delivery of the driveway markers.  They are very nice.

HI Bruce -
I just wanted to thank you for the great job you did on our trellis. It looks great! Thanks again.
Regards,
Doug

Hi Bruce! 
I received the brackets.  I think they look really neat!  You never fail to impress me!
Cyndi

Just a quick note to let you know that these markers arrived between Christmas and New Year's and they are absolutely GREAT.  My sister really likes them, but right now they are sitting in her living room since it is WAY to cold in South Dakota right now to put them in the ground as the ground is frozen.  I also really like the single door mat that I ordered for myself.  I have saved your web site as a favorite so you will probably be hearing from me again.  Thanks. 

Hello Bruce !
I just have to tell you how much I love my arbor. It fits perfectly in my
little "Cape Cod European style cottage "garden. I planted clematis and
climbing roses under it, and morning glories so it is not so naked this
year. They have already completely covered it. I have gotten so many
comments on my arbor. Thanks for such a beautifully crafted piece of art.
If shipping wasn't so expensive I would start thinking about where to put
the next one.  Bettina

thanks. your stuff was great and worked out well.
Brian Sullivan

Greetings!!

Wow!!  I cannot believe I got your email!!! I gave up hope trying to reach you as my old emails  were disappearing in cyberspace.  I tried searching you guys out via Google and could not find a current website.  I was looking for you this spring, because a few years back, I ordered 2 window boxes that I LOVE and always regretted not ordering a 3rd side box.  I've always wanted that third box and thought we should get it up.  SO, I will study your site now, see if I can find the pattern and be back in touch.  Thanks again for the email!!  Sandy Barbo

Thanks Bruce – I will try to watch it.  I am still enjoying my classy reflectors and beautiful hose holder.  I may order some trellises when my butterfly bushes get bigger. I am going to pass your website on to my girlfriend in Cary who is working on her patio/backyard.  Congratulations on another HGTV appearance!!!

Cindy Spach (in Winston-Salem)

Received.  Thanks.
Yall did a GREAT job packing them up!
I partially opened one, showed it to the homeowner - she thought it was beautiful
Next step, powder coating.  We will be doing that in a couple weeks.
Thanks,
Katy

By the way, I really like the driveway marker; it is very attractive.
 

I am sending you a quick photo of my boxes.  They have not been planted very long but I LOVE them and I am looking forward to changing them each year.  Also, when I took them to the garden center to plant them, they were impressed and they loved the bronze color!  Thanks so much for all you help with my purchase.  I am enjoying them!
 
Cyndi 
They really add to the quaintness don't they?

I just wanted to let you know that I did receive my order a few days ago. Thanks. I will try to send a good picture of all the installed boxes. Yesterday we installed the last one that I received and I put in some petunias and every time a car would pass by our house it would slow down and the driver would stare. Our neighbors just love the window boxes and I have told all of them about your business.
 
Chrystal
 
Bruce,
    Thank you for a very smooth transaction.  We are very pleased with
your workmanship (the liner slipped in like a glove) and your
communication with us during the order process.  A photo of our newly
planted liner in our window box is attached.  Feel free to use it as
you wish.

Sincerely,
Florie and Michael
 
These Cooper galvanized steel window box lines look great, thanks for your help

Hi Bruce... here we are in Myrtle Beach... Hal on the golf course and 
me watching my favorite HGTV show...Curb Appeal. And then picture 
this... I'm jumping up and down telling Teddi (you remember him.. my 
9# shih tzu) that that is Bruce... that's our friend and he's 
famous!!! About killed me that there wasn't a soul to call and tell 
and I'd left my phone book at home so couldn't call you with our 
heartfelt congratulations.

Your work as always is gorgeous and what a fun thing it was to see 
you big as life on the tv screen. Made my day. Hope it brings you all 
the work and more than you can handle as you deserve all the best. We 
are so proud of you.
Hal sends his congrats also!! I pulled up the website to show him the 
house and your beautiful gates etc.

To think we know a celebrity!!!

Love you. Hal and jeannine

Hi, Bruce-Had a party this weekend, so I took some pics.
They don't do the screen justice and EVERYONE loved it!
Thanks, again!

Thank you very much, Bruce, I just completed arrangements for payment.
I will be back to the website for more shopping in the near
future. I want to wish everyone there a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hi-We have the fire screen up!  It looks great!!
A little dark to take a picture-I will do it tomorrow in the daylight.
There won't be a fire behind it (I think that would look fantastic), but
I'll take another pic this coming weekend when we build a fire.
Thanks for all of your hard work!
We love it!

Hello Bruce:

The Driveway markers really add a touch of class compared to what we used in the past,  I just got them all in.
Best regards,
Mike

Dear Bruce,

I have 5 of your English style window boxes.  There is a courtyard nearby that I would like to replace the wooden gate with a gate in a similar style as the boxes.  It is just a small single gate. Is that something you do?  If so, how do I go about ordering it?

I still get so many compliments on your boxes.  Of course I do keep them full and fluffy but you did all the real work.

I loved your piece on TV.  It was fun to put a face with your name.  Ya’ll sure made that house look fantastic!

Thanks again!

Yours,

Mary Wilson

Hello Bruce,

 
I have received the liner and it fits perfectly.  It was a pleasure to do business with you. 
Thanks very much.

 

I have forgotten to let you know that we received the window boxes in fine shape, and they’re perfect – thanks.  Our builder was also impressed with your work and your service / delivery !  Thank you!
 

Hi Bruce,

     I have put the check in the mail today.  You provide quality service.  Calling me twice...was great.  It has been a very hectic week and your follow-through is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again. 
   Connie

 

Bruce,

Sorry for the delay, as I was away and then wanted to check the rail too.  We're very pleased with the work!  It fits quite well and looks fine, so we really appreciate your work.  I put the check in the mail from Jonas Ridge yesterday, so you should have it early this week.  Again, thanks for your work.
Carl

Your measurements are good, and you're right about the drain holes.  Our check is on its way.   No photos yet.

 We're very pleased to have discovered your company.

Hello Bruce!
I received my window box and it's perfect!  So pleased!  I am sending  
you a pic of how it ended up being applied.  This is a wall in my  
kitchen that I turned into "bringing the outside in" I eventually  
will want to do four window boxes for the exterior of my house.  We  
have a black wrought iron fence in our front yard and these window  
boxes would look great when I appoint my exterior windows with them.  
I know in this pic you can't really see the box since I added all the  
flowers and things but thats what window boxes are for right?  I am  
so happy that I was able to find a place that can do custom size  
metal window boxes.  Thank so much and I look forward to my next  
project and will contact you again for more!

My Best,
Shimley

 

Bruce -
Hope all is well and business is good!
As promised, I am forwarding some photos of the window boxes installed and
with flowers. The look great and the quality is outstanding. Feel free to
use the photos as you wish.

Dave Joseph

 Hello Bruce,
When we arrived home for lunch, we were thrilled to discover that the flower boxes were waiting for us at the front door.
We promptly unwrapped them.  Bruce, thank you so much for your extra fast delivery.  They are beautiful and "symmetrical" as promised.
I can't wait to put them up. 
Irene
 

Bruce -
Just a quick note to tell you I got the boxes and they look awesome! I
haven't opened them all or installed them, but wanted you to know I got
them.

Once they are up, etc., I will take a digital photo and send them to you.
Thanks,
Dave

Thank you so much for your excellent customer service!  I have sent you my payment and included my shipping address in the special notes section of my payment.

 
Kind Regards,

We received the window boxes and have them installed. 

Considering these went on the second floor I’m glad we did aluminum. Took two of us all of about 45 minutes to install all three.

Better yet my wife loves them so that keeps me out of the doghouse for at least 4 or 5 hours

They look great. Nice work.

I’ll snap some digi photos and send them your way one of these days.

Thanks and thank google.com.  that is how I found you.

Hi Bruce,

 
The flower box looks great and it's a perfect fit too. Once the painting is done, I'll send you a picture.

We love the window boxes...hung 4 this weekend, largest one yet to do.  Will send pictures when hung!

Hello Bruce, thanks for the trellis, this time it arrived in perfect condition. I appreciate the prompt and helpful way your company has handled the problems that have arisen with the first shipment. I will gladly recommend you and your company to others.
                                                                                     Thanks Werner B
 
Thanks, Bruce!  We are excited to get the window boxes.  We bought this house in February and I personally think the exterior is very boxy and plain to me.  From the day we moved in I decided it needed window boxes and have been searching everywhere for NICE window boxes.  My husband brought some home from Lowe's and had to tell him in a nice way that they were not going to help me like the exterior of the house.  Then, I showed him your website and the window boxes and he saw a huge difference in what we're getting from you vs. Lowe's.  I'll take some before and after pictures and send them to you.
 

 

 

Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job on the window boxes!  We have had at least 100 people ask us who made them!  We live in a small town (3800 people) and they set on the windows of my husband's Main Street market.  The town has totally fallen in love with the window boxes! People are constantly commenting on how attractive they are.
  This area also draws numerous summer people to the area and they too are quite smitten with the boxes.  Many of which have taken your name and website address.  I hope that you will be contacted by at least a few of these folks!
I will send some pictures along to you shortly.

Again, thank you for doing such wonderful work!

Sincerely,

John & Heidi Vigue

Thanks for your quick reply.   I've been searching high and low for
those type of deck hangers and was overjoyed when I found them on your
web site.  Then panic set in when I didn't fully read the shipping
costs.   Thank goodness common sense kicked in, so I went back and
reread the checkout page and then quickly ordered.  There are times
when
I am a little "dense" and age is making these times  come more often.

Thanks again and I can't wait to see my bird feeders hanging on my
deck.
 

Hi Bruce,
 
Thank you for the two terrific Parisian trellis'. The quality in construction, materials, and appearance of your products is outstanding. I can't wait to install them. Just setting one into place for a preview added the perfect finishing touch to the front of my new custom home. Thanks for doing such a fine job! I'll soon be calling for some window boxes.
 
Jeff Buchanan

Hi Bruce;

Well, I have them!  Pam called me at 5:15pm Friday night to say
Annabelle Spa had received the shipment and could I pick up my "huge" box by
6pm.  I told her I live in Springfield and that on a good day I could
get there in 45 minutes but on a Friday night in the peak traffic hour
and the added heavy rain from "Ernesto", I knew there was no way.  So we
agreed that I would get them by 9am the next morning.  I arrived at
8:30am Saturday, loaded them on my husband's truck and drove home.  When
the rain finally stopped I unwrapped them and easily pushed them into
the soaked soil in front of my ugly plastic shed and WOW are they ever
beautiful.  I'm going to plant ivy in front of each and I have a iron
bench between them and what a difference!

I'm very happy and so grateful for all your help.  Thank you so much.

    Hi!  I hope you've been well.  I'm the physician from Highland Park, Illinois who purchased 3 small and 2 large window boxes and 2 flower boxes last year.  All were aluminum.  Each had a copper lining.  They are terrific and we've had numerous compliments.  I believe the design we chose was "English". 

As promised, attached are pictures of the flower boxes which we purchased from you.  We have received numerous compliments on the boxes.  They look terrific, particularly now with the flowers in them.  Thanks so much!

Thanks for the chuckle and for such wonderful service -- I wish more people were as easy to do business with!!  Cheryl Gilmore

Hello,   I bought 24 of your large finial (red) driveway markers last year and am very satisfied with them.  Unfortunately my Siberian Huskies liked them too, as they chewed or otherwise destroyed the finial tops on many of the markers.  I would like to place an order for an additional 10 large markers and I would like to have ten (10) large replacement finials included with the order. Thank you.

Hi,
Just a note to let you know have received the hook in very good condition. They are just what I need!!! Thank you again Kristine

Hi there, we were out of town and just got back to the window boxes and liners - they are absolutely beautiful. Amy

Thanks so much for your timely shipping of the hose butler!  Hopefully you have the check by now!  Your items are lovely, and fairly priced.  I will definitely order from you again!
Sincerely,
 
-Lynne Gollands

The window boxes we ordered arrived on time as promised and they are gorgeous!!!  Super job, guys.  We'll send you pictures of them mounted to our house when it gets warm enough to hang them.  In Wisconsin, that could be August!

Looking forward to doing more business with you.  Again, thank you--a pleasure dealing with your company.  Super!

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!
 
The window boxes are awesome! They were all received in great condition thanks to your excellent packing job. They will truly add and extra dimension to our Bed & Breakfast.
 
Thank you,

We received the window boxes, all in good condition, on Friday, August 12th   They are beautiful!  The quality is excellent!  The color is perfect.  The design is exactly right.  The clay pots fit right in them.  They will get installed this week.  I will send you a photo upon completion.  Thank you for your time and talent in making our home more beautiful.  It was a pleasure doing business with you and I will keep you in mind for future projects for us and other friends/family.  Sincerely,

Jill Spinoso

Bruce,

Just wanted to let you know we have received the window boxes and they look great!!!  There has been a delay in our plans for putting them up but we hope to have them up in a few weeks.  I know everyone will be asking us about them and I'll be sure to give them your info. 
Thank you again for great craftsmanship and honest customer service.
Sincerely,
Annie & Mike 

Thanks Bruce. I got the new check and plan to order two more smaller boxes.  Everyone in my neighborhood has commented on the two you made for me.  They are beautiful.  Thanks again,

Mary

We didn't forget to send you pictures of our finished house, it just took longer than anticipated for the landscape.  As you will see, the window boxes are awesome!  They really add to the overall design of our house.  We love them!  Thanks for all your help in making sure the measurements were done correctly and they were built correctly. They fit perfectly.  Everyone who sees them comments on how lovely they look.  We like it because no one here has anything like them.  Being across country does have it's advantages.  Let me know if these don't open for you and I'll try again.
Thanks very much,

Bruce,
The screen just arrived -- it's perfect!!!  It pulls the room together beautifully with the ginkgo accent leaves on my new area rug and the gilded ginkgo leaves I made for my Christmas tree this year.  I'm really excited and can't wait to show off my new piece of artwork to my friends. 

 

Hi Bruce,
 
Florida was good. The heat wasn't bad as long as you stayed near water. Very comfortable at night! I just got back last night and opened up the package. I love the markers! I hope they work as well as the ugly ones! I'm just going to send you a check - it will be easier. I'll put it in today's mail. Thanks for such great service!
 
Thanks again for a job well done -- the workmanship is splendid!  My father was a blacksmith, so I truly appreciate your talent.
Romona Sheaffer

 

I finally got the window boxes on Friday afternoon. Wow!!  Absolutely gorgeous.  Put them up yesterday.  Will recommend you to everyone.

Thanks again.

Bruce -
I received my finial driveway markers today.  I immediately put them around
the driveway and was so pleased at how easy they went in the ground.  They
are so attractive and look great around my drive.  You've done a fantastic
job on these! 
Deb Campbell

Bruce,

 
The fireplace screen is perfect!  It is the most beautiful screen we have ever seen. Thank for doing business with us, we are very happy!

Bruce:  Trellis arrived in perfect condition...my wife loves it...thank
you!  I should be receiving invoice today; will be in tomorrow morning's
mail, if I do.  Thank you again for all your kind attention...and for a
great product!  George T.

Hey Bruce! the screen arrived today and it's awesome!.. Nice job. Just wondering if I could buy a Kokopelli figure from you that is already cut out. This way I could have our in house welding guy tack it on. What do you think?

 

Hi Bruce

Just wanted to let you know that we received the screen today.. it looks amazing! Thank you so much. We will be sure to pass your website on to friends who ask.

Paul neveu

I just received the screen - it is beautiful. Thank you. Elizabeth Norkum

Bruce - I received the boxes yesterday and they are gorgeous. Thank you Mary
 

yes I did.  It is a handsome piece I might add. and it is a lot sturdier than the ones I had looked at home depot and the like.  I've inform several people where I acquired it, whether they contact you or not is to be seen.  Thank you

 
Bruce Ginter
11/04 I have received the Finial Reflectors. Thank you. I also have the invoice that you faxed to me. Would you please confirm if you have received payment thru "Pay Pal"? I appreciate your responsiveness and am very happy with the reflectors.  Mike Avery

Bruce,

Just wanted to say THANKS for the Shepherd Hooks - they are perfect for
what I need.
The finials look good too !
Appreciate your help with everything.

Thank you for graciously filling my order and for you responding so quickly. I look forward to enjoying your hose guards in the garden!

To Bruce Dyak:
I wanted to let you know that I have just returned from a two week vacation
and that is why you haven't yet received my check for the boot scraper.  I
didn't want you to think that you had sent it off and that I wasn't going to
pay you.  I returned to work today and there it was -- what a beautiful
thing it is!  I will be mailing my check to you tomorrow.  Thanks so much
for sending it.  --Tina Sassaman

Bruce:

Just a few words to let you know that the morning glories are
halfway up the trellis  vine we purchased, and everyone who sees it thinks
it's great...best of all, my wife is happy.  Thanks again for a wonderful
product and great customer service.

George Tomczyk

P.S. The window box looks great. We had to leave before we could put it on the
house to see if it works. We'll try to do it this weekend and if it looks as
good on the house as it does off, I'll contact you next week about ordering
more.

Bruce,
I finally received the Pontalba fire screen yesterday.  You were right - it is absolutely beautiful!  My husband, Richard Barnowski, is mailing you a cheque today (as per the invoice included in the shipment).  Thanks again, Cheryl!

 

Hi Bruce...the screen arrived today and it is outstanding. We're very happy with it.  I hope it fits when I get it to Vermont but I think it will.  The shipping aspect was a bit of a pain because despite the fact that we were home when they delivered it, they just left it in our driveway and didn't even bother to let us know.  So despite the "please inspect" warnings all over the package, they had already left.  Fortunately, it looks undamaged, but two of the feet were sticking out of holes in the cardboard (but they look fine).
Thanks again...dp
 

Dear Bruce,

Beautiful - you're the best! 
 
Many thanks,
Chris
 

Those are beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  They are in aluminum right?

 

The window boxes are up and I am getting ready to fill them with Christmas greens.   Will take a picture and send it to you so you can see just how pretty they look.

 
Thanks and Merry Christmas.
Johanna
