Gernandt Stringed Instruments. Spending much of my life in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains of Western North Gernandt Stringed Instruments Carolina, it was a matter of time before being introduced to the Appalachian Mountain Dulcimer. By 1977 I began playing and building them. This was quite a change from the past 12 years of playing and hauling a huge drum set around. Quiet, soothing and very portable, the dulcimer went everywhere with me for many years. The response to my dulcimers was so positive, it inspired me to continue building.

Kaydee Kreations is a small, home-based business in the Great Smoky Mountains of western North Carolina. It is named for my husband, K.D., who brought me here to his family roots eight years ago. Although born in New York, I did not have much trouble assimilating into mountain life (which I dearly love) and found myself involved in playing the hammered dulcimer, quilting, knitting, and sewing to my heart's content. I also became actively involved with herbal therapy and natural foods and incorporated this newly found knowledge into my cooking at home. Kaydee Kreations site.
