Next molds are made from the originals and then hand-cast using a variety of mediums to ensure the exact detailing of the original woodcarving. Then American folk artists from North Carolina paint them by hand to specifications using acrylic paint and stain. The artist signs and dates each piece. Finally a protective coating is applied to ensure long-lasting resilience to the outdoor elements.
