Once again in 2004, we earned the honor of being selected for First Lady Taft's "Treasures for the Tree". We attended the reception at the Governor's Residence in December. The following ornament was submitted and selected as one of fifty finalists.
The first ornament designed by Mike, won first place in its region in 2003.

In 2002, we submitted one of our Holiday copper creations to Ohio's Governor Taft for the Treasures for the Tree contest. We were notified in November that our ornament had been selected as one of the winning entries. The copper Trumpeter of Peace ornament has become one of the permanent Christmas decorations in the Governor's Residence in Columbus, Ohio. Our local newspaper ran an article on the artisans from Tuscarawas County chosen for this honor.
