The favorite gift Signal Mountain resident Ginny Galphin remembers receiving is a camera.
“I’ve just always enjoyed capturing special memories,” she said.
As the owner of Look Again Products, she incorporates those images into her new line of coasters, note cards, trash cans and Christmas ornaments. Now available at Cutting Corners Framing and Gifts, the items are intended to make the recipient pause, recall and re-examine memories, experiences and places, especially the special places around Signal Mountain, said Galphin.
“It will be a special reminder of where we live, where we visited our families, and a reminder of all our special memories of this great place,” she said. “They’re not just pretty, but practical.”
The idea for her business was inspired by a photo she took of a wine glass with a reflection of a marsh in the background. She loved the photo so much that she started making cards with it, which she also started doing with other well-loved photos from her travels as well as from around town.
