A story from Fink's point of view

  Do you remember who your archenemy was in 2nd grade? 

  I do, Dale,  even though I didn't know we were archenemies until later in life.  Fast forward over 4 decades, we are brothers, rather than just good friends, much less enemies.  We were both wiped out by Hurricane Katrina and since I am a glutton for punishment, I stayed while Dale moved on to greener pastures.  As life happens, things changed and my family (wife and two daughters)  decided to move to Texas.  Ironically, the week after I moved, Dale and his family (wife, daughter and now two sons) moved back to our beloved St. Bernard Parish.  (Apparently he still held some grudges from 2nd grade)

Through unexplained circumstances, around the same time but separately,  Dale and myself starting making similar items for friends and family.  Several months and conversations later, the topic came up.  During that discussion we were complai... uh...discussing what our least favorite parts of the process of creating were and as luck would have it and not surprisingly, they were opposite.  I like designing and building and Dale enjoys designing and beautifying (ie finishing).  We decided to join forces and build upon what we had already established and Big Shots Creations was born.  The name has some history filled with bravado, triumphs and tribulations but most importantly, teamwork.  We will leave the details for the book Dale will be writing.

Both us take pride and enjoy making items that will last.  We both enjoy the challenge of designing and  making unique items or not so unique items that will last generations.  Whether it be for yourself, your business or gifts for friends or loved ones, we strive to wow our customers on every piece.  We would love to be challenged by you!

Thanks for visiting,

Dale and Fink

PS. This is the story from my perspective and since I, Fink, have to type it and he, Dale,  doesn't know how to change it, he has to deal with it.
