VISALIA, Calif. (KFSN) -- At Vintage Metal Co it's another busy day inside the Visalia shop, creating one of a kind metal art.

Jaime Baeza Vintage Metal Co said, "Really it all comes down to words and words really matter to people."

It's those words that have propelled their South Valley business.

Jaime Baeza is an owner of the shop along with her husband Brandon who creates the one of a kind custom art with sayings and quotes. Jaime often creates the designs and Brandon works on the metal. A CNC machine cuts each phrase just right.

"I love working with my husband. Thankfully we work really well together and he's good at what I'm not good at, I'm good at what he's not good at," Jaime said.

Right now they're busy filling custom orders for the holidays. They actually shut down their ETSY shop so they could make sure each gift arrives by Christmas. Many are special orders. Orders are shipped across the U.S. and they've even taken a request from the U.K.

Jaime Baeza "We've more doubled our business in just the past year."

The Baezas say they have grown and in the futures will expand their shop to meet the demand.

The company has been around two years and say Instagram has been a game changer for their farmhouse style decor, allowing them to showcase their art to customers in the Valley and beyond.
