See you in the fall. |

| Hi, my name is Dan Seymour and I
have been making fine crafts since 1995. I started out when I bought
a used scroll saw and table saw from someone, in my church, that was
moving to an apartment and needed to get rid of his shop. I started
to make doll furniture for my daughter's American Girl dolls. Then I
started making them for our friend's daughters and started going to
craft shows to sell them. A local paper featured me in an article
and I became involved with the local chapter of the
Ronald McDonald House Charities.
They put on an American Girl fashion show every year, read the
article and asked if I would like to help out. It is a very worth
while cause, so my whole family got involved. My wife helps with the
shows, my daughters were models in the shows, now they help out like
my wife and I help behind the scenes by donating pieces of furniture
to raffle off.
I love making the doll furniture, but needed other
ways to express myself, so I looked for new things to make.

I bought a lathe so I
could make spindles for the doll furniture and saw a couple of ads to
buy pen kits. It looked interesting, so I bought some. I liked it so
much, that I started making them regularly and have been able to add
high quality hand-turned pens to my product line. |

I also went back and
started fooling around with my scroll saw. In a magazine article, I
read about a guy that takes pictures and cuts them out of thin
pieces of wood. That sounded like a challenge for me, so I bought
his books and learned how to do it. So now, I've also added
our, very unique, scroll-sawn portraits to my list of products. |

See-More Woodcrafts. All the work is done by me, Dan
Seymour, and each piece I make has to pass inspection of my worst
critic, myself, before I allow it to be sold.
