Rodney Gentry appreciates the work that goes into a Keepsake Ornament well before any actual hands-on creation. “It’s a combination of engineering and artistry that starts with a lot of hard work up front. It’s not always an A to Z progression,” says Rodney. “You wear a lot of different hats—researcher, historian, engineer, craftsman—on the way to a completed piece that will be both true to life and emotionally satisfying.”

“This is the first in the series, the Cars the Star, and I had the privilege of doing the 1970 Dodge Charger from The Fast and the Furious. This ornament captures the way I grew up the way I feel about cars. I love just all the detail. You have your chrome-plated engine that sticks out from the hood, mag wheels with the lower profile, chrome bumpers, and even your gas cap has chrome on it. I just love this Dodge Charger. On my first car, my father actually wanted me to buy a Dodge Charger and at that time, I didn’t wana buy it. I’d had my mindset on a different car so I missed out. My father was right. This is one of the most perfect muscle cars you can buy and zoom. Pick this bad boy up and add a little muscle to your tree this year.” – Rodney Gentry, Hallmark Artist
