Artist Bio:

Designer Palms started when Wendell Turner met his future wife, Helen. He was from the Midwest and she was from Florida. After they were married they moved to the Midwest. Many years later, Wendell ran out of anniversary gift ideas. One day he decided he'd give his wife a bit of her hometown and Designer Palms was born. Designer Palms are custom-made life-size palm trees made of metal to withstand the harsh temperatures of the Midwest. Designed to accent any outdoor or indoor space, they can be made standing upright leaning or curved with long or short fronds. And as Wendell Turner says, "Our product will make the consumer smile for a long time. It's very relaxing to be around and makes you feel like you are in the tropics.
