Welcome to the new home of Positive Dots… Since fall many people have asked where you can purchase things we design & make. This includes the Andrea Louise Jewelry line, Our handmade pens, bottle toppers, keychains, bottle openers and other items turned from exotic woods & acrylics. We also make other items like handmade cribbage boards and motivational pen holders made on our small CNC machine in house one at a time. Many of our items are one of a kind as mother nature is the only one who can duplicate some of the beauty in the woods and our beads and items for Jewelry are sourced in small lots making each piece unique. If you click on the picture of the three bars (Menu) on the top right of your screen it will bring you to our other pages including our store. Please friend us on Facebook by following our link to be up to date on the most recent items posted in the store.

I had someone ask me the other day if I was crazy for thinking about launching a new business in the middle of a pandemic? Maybe kind of but why not? Our new venture is about fun, creativity, & positivity just to name a few things and right about now who couldn’t use a bit of nice stuff in their lives. Take care & be well!

Three years ago I hurt my hand in a snow blower accident. My rehab had stagnated and I was frustrated. One night in my basement I found my Grandfathers old wood lathe. The one he taught me on. It inspired me to try something new. I began turning wood, creating pens, bowls, cribbage boards and lots of other things. All this while keeping and building strength and dexterity in my hand. In finding a new joy I found a way to work on something I was frustrated about and get to create beautiful things while I do it.
