HeartStones Just in time for Valentines Day -- the perfect gift for the SPIslander who has everything -- except a sandy feet original! May be easily customized. Prices start as low as $30. Place your order today!

Take a little bit of Padre home with you. These Little Sandy Things go anywhere -- even out in the elements. They can grace a garden, get planted in a pot, fancy up a footpath or decorate a deck. They can be customized to suit you -- each is a hand-carved original by sandy feet!

Light enough to move, weighty enough to stay put, and built to last! the carved sand is treated with a soil solidifier that makes the sculpture impervious to extreme weather. These Little Sandy Things are happy inside or out. I can also construct something much larger in your yard -- built to order! Pedestals, garden dividers, planters, solar light fixtures -- I love a good challenge!
