Rita is a woodworker who is based out of Moatsville, WV

Growing up in the mountains of West Virginia, Rita watched both her father and grandfather work with wood daily, building houses and eventually wooden creations of their own design. When she was 15 years old, she decided to pick up the craft herself and has continued that work for the majority of her life!

After multiple decades, she has perfected her craft. Spending around one week per creation, Rita loves to bring a variety of subject matter to life using wood and acrylic paints. She most enjoys making larger yard decorations depicting things like animals on swings. She hopes that her pieces find loving homes with people who are as passionate about yard and holiday decorations as she is.

​

When she is not working on her craft, Rita enjoys cleaning, saying that she delights in the joy that clean spaces bring to herself and the people around her. She also spends time with her five children, Daniel, Cole, Alicia, Jacob, and Isabella, in addition to watching her favorite films: The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, Scrooge, and Tom and Jerry!
