Our story
From the farmers market to your home
TLC Metal Designs started the way the best small shops do — a folding table, a handful of pieces, and neighbors who kept coming back. What began as a weekend craft has become a workshop devoted to forged metal art and decor made entirely by hand.
We still believe in the things a market taught us: meet people, make it honest, and build it to outlast us.

How it’s made
Forged, not factory
- 01
Sketch & design
Every piece starts on paper — we shape the idea with you until the lines feel right.
- 02
Forge by hand
Steel is heated, hammered and drawn out at the anvil. No two pieces ever come out identical.
- 03
Finish & patina
Hand-finished, sealed and patinated to last for generations — then it’s yours.
