TORRINGTON – They look a bit like they are the product of giant cookie cutters, but they aren’t. Each item is individually cut from a slab of metal, according to designs drawn with permanent
markers.
From life sized Nativity Scene figures to strange critters created from toddler sized bicycle tire rims, Peggy and Kevin Segelke use their imaginations and metal working skills to produce landscape decorations for just about any occasion.
According to Peggy, the permanent marker expert, the McGrew, Neb., couple has been engaged in metal work nearly 16 years. Their business, K&P Welding, is in Morrill, but they travel to neighboring states where they participate in craft shows.
Their efforts range from re-purposed bed steads turned into benches, to impressive “rustic” versions of the Nativity scene. They also create custom orders.
