    Default A New Look For The Walking Sticks

    I've decided to create a new look for the walking sticks and canes that I make. I love the new color, but I would really like your opinion.

    Please let me know what you think.

    Thanks,

    Look like a bunch of bread sticks.
    Think I'll have soup for dinner, you guessed it, with bread sticks.

    It is a nice golden colour, I'm sure people will like them.

    Well obviously it's a very subjective thing but personally I don't like it, especially where it seems to be a darker red colour.
    To my way of thinking it is getting away from the natural more muted natural hues of a wood colour, I suspect people who buy a natural looking stick - want a traditional natural looking stick & not one with a artificial non rustic colour. For me it would be a deal breaker if I were conserving buying one.
    Why don't you offer both finishes alongside each other & test he market before committing one way or the other ?
    Just one mans' take on it you understand.
    Cheers Mike.

    I think I will do as you suggest. Offer both types of sticks, however I do hope the gunstock color is a winner, as I have just completed nearly 200 sticks.
