Vermont Stone Cross Co. Open Studio Weekend Spring 2013
It's a family affair...The Hamblins of Hartland are very
"crafty" people. Mom makes
"Green Mountain Treats" for cats and dogs, Dad makes furniture and
collectibles from recycle barn boards and Kenny Hamblin IV is the creator of
Vermont Stone Crosses. Stone masons by
trade the Hamblin men now focus their talents on stone and wood crafts for the
home.
On Saturday, Kenny the III and Kenny the IV opened their
studio Vermont Stone Cross Co. to visitors as part of the statewide "Open Studio Weekend";
held twice a year in the spring and fall. The younger Hamblin creates carved
stone trays, oil lamps, table lamps, and now stone crosses. Like the great
stone carvers before him (Michelangelo) Hamblin says the stone tells him what
it should be made into. He examines its shape, color and texture then begins to
reshape the stone. He creations are unique and very affordable.
