Handmade for the Holidays: Local crafters turn to Etsy
SCOTTS VALLEY -- San Jose Police Department officer Michael Roberson makes a living keeping the city's streets safe at night, but law enforcement isn't his only beat.
He also knows his way around Etsy.
"At work everybody calls me the Renaissance man," said Roberson, a hobbyist crafter whose other talents include singing [he's in a band], construction [he's a general contractor], parenting [he's a father of two] and photography [he once had his own darkroom].
The Scotts Valley resident saw a YouTube video earlier this year of an artist who uses dental tools to drill detailed designs into bone. Intrigued, Roberson tried it himself, and soon he was carving whistles and night-lights out of fallen branches, dog bones and deer antlers.
In September, Roberson opened a store in the online marketplace Etsy.com to gauge whether his carvings would sell. They did, most recently to a customer in the UK who now owns a forked deer-antler whistle with an antique mesquite mouthpiece handcrafted in Scotts Valley.
