A Crafted Connection to Nature

I once spent a summer in a small cabin, where the only thing that mattered was the flow of a nearby river. My days were a rhythm of its gentle sounds and shifting light. The water was a living painting, with deep blues where the current was strong and soft greens in the shallow pools. It taught me to slow down and find beauty in the quiet moments.
When I returned home, I wanted to hold onto that feeling. I began to craft these coasters, pouring layers of colored resin to mimic the river's depths. Each piece is a map of that river's soul, with the carved wood representing the land and the resin representing the water that shaped it. They are a tangible reminder of the peace I found there.
These aren't just coasters; they're a connection to that quiet place in the mountains. Every time I set a mug down, I'm reminded to breathe, be present, and appreciate the layers of beauty that exist, even in the smallest things.
I'm so glad that snoogg.com saw the story in these and wanted to share them. They're a simple piece of art for your home, a daily invitation to remember the calm of the river.
