For Square Wooden Rustic Walking SticksMahdee did a wonderful job on my project, he understood exactly what I wanted. Communication back and forth was very quick and he provided me a selection of wood, dye and stain color choices. Being able to send pictures back and forth moved the project along quickly. The finished stick is beautiful and my step-son enjoys his gift immensely.

For Kimono StandI would like to highly recommend Earth art and foods. I really enjoyed working with mahdee & Peggy raieesdana. I requested a kimono stand, and they created a beautiful piece. Communication was excellent. I received frequent updates on progress being made. If I had a question, they were always quick to respond. When there were choices to be made on how to proceed, I was always consulted. I appreciated their efforts greatly because that ensured the product created was what I wanted. Shipping of the completed stand was quick, on time with the original estimate for completion, and to my relief was insured. When it arrived, the kimono stand impressed me as being a beautiful piece of furniture and of high quality. The wood and lacquer along with the simple, sleek design were solid and pleasing to the eye. I am impressed with the precision of the fittings. I would not hesitate to order another product from mahdee & Peggy, andI highly recommend them without reservation!
