HAPPY 2026!
Restocking smaller crosses! The past couple of days I've been making smaller crosses. This summer I focused on making smaller rugged crosses (8"-14") to add to my inventory. All of these crosses sold in December. The crosses in the photo still need to be stained and polyurethaned. My crosses range from 8 inches to 5 feet in height.
If you are interested, please contact me and we will get you a cross! Most of the time I FaceTime with customers and then we narrow their choice down and ship the cross to them.

Thanking JESUS for HIS sacrifice on the CROSS which gives us eternal life!
"So I'll cherish the old rugged cross; Till my trophies at last I lay down. I will cling to the old rugged cross; And exchange it someday for a crown."
Still time to ship a cross to someone for Easter but would need to ship soon. Easter is approaching and if you would like to purchase a cross for you, or a family member or a friend just contact me and we can make this happen.

A few weeks ago I went to get old fence posts in a pasture near Ericson, Nebraska. Here is a video of how I power wash the old fence posts. After removing the outer part of the old post to get to the good red cedar part of the post, I let the post dry out before I transform the post into a beautiful old rugged cross.

Christmas is getting closer so do not hesitate to contact me to get a beautiful rugged cross for a Christmas gift.

Have a friend whose mother had passed away. He asked if there was anything I could do with a small wooden cross that his mother always had in her pocket. She would often have it in her hand and would rub the cross. I ended up carefully insetting the cross into a larger cross and here is the result. ✝️❤️

Revamped a wall in my garage which displays some of my crosses. The standing crosses in the photo can also hang on a wall. These beautiful old rugged crosses would look great in your home or you may want to gift someone a cross. People love the crosses as memorial gifts. I also have on racks in my garage larger crosses (approximately 3 feet) that hang on the wall if you are interested in this size of cross. If interested, let me know and we can make it happen. Blessings to you!
So I'll cherish Thee Old Rugged Cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to Thee Old Rugged Cross
And exchange it someday for a crown
