About this Product

The Recovery Rock is the best gift for addiction (or at least one of the best gifts for addiction) because it is a tangible piece of strength and hope, a good white-knuckle device – and something you can always hurl at the wall or through a window if life gets to be too much. But you don’t have to pick up that drug, drink, credit card or piece of cake. How I make them: Each Recovery Rock is carefully hand-selected from a dry, dusty Arizona riverbed and transformed into a kitschy, keen and altogether cool tchotchke – absolute proof of hope where it appeared there was none. None of the rocks ever figured they’d be saved from their dusty grave and transformed into a colorful chunk of strength that sits warmly in your living room (I asked). Once collected, each rock is hand-painted with a funky face, delightful designs and blazoned with the words: “CAN DO” – because YOU CAN DO it. Specs: Each rock is approximately the size of an adult woman’s fist or a bit smaller. This is heavy enough to make an effective paperweight and light enough so it won’t cause all that much damage if you hurl it at the wall. Six colors available to cover a rainbow of recovery from addictions: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. Background color is beautifully blended using at least two hues with contrasting text and designs. Please specify color when ordering; if no color is specified, a random color will be selected based on my mood of the day or whichever paint is closest. This best gift for addiction makes a great paperweight at home or work, a sweet addition to any coffee table or shelving unit and an inspiring chunk of décor for your night stand. Wake up every morning with this strong and solid reminder of recovery from addiction – and how you can do it, too. Variations: Custom orders always welcome! If you want a Recovery Rock with a mix of colors, noting a specific addiction or in a smaller pocket size or larger window-breaking size, email ryngargulinski@hotmail.com Terms: Recovery Rocks are made to order, so please include any personalized details you'd like on your rock(s). Because each rock is originally handcrafted by nature and truly unique, you may not necessarily get a rock pictured in the photos. Photos provided to show style, colors, size and funkiness. Makes an excellent stocking stuffer - get one in every color!

Meet the Maker

Hi. I'm Ryn Gargulinski. But you can call me Rynski. 

I was born with a Sharpie marker in hand. Well, not really. But I discovered the joy of creation very early in my life. My handmade items include custom illustrations, metal yard art – including my signature “Beware of Dog” sign – clay and faux fur fantasy figurines, lucky voodoo dolls, books, paintings and more. 

Anything I see that looks like it can be turned into art gets turned into art. Either that, or it sits in my backyard, garage or studio until sometime trips on it enough times to throw it away.


RYNSKI SUCCESS STORY 

Ryn Gargulinski [Rynski] is an award-winning writer, artist, coach, Reiki master and dog lover who once traded her artwork on the streets of New York City just to eat and get her daily beer. She has since given up drinking and now has enough money to eat—even organic!

She has also expanded her art into a successful enterprise, her writing and branding services into a thriving business, and her coaching, healing and speaking into a growing practice that has already helped many realize and expand into their true potential.

Credentials include 10 published books, more than a dozen awards, and 20+ years in recovery from alcohol. Don’t forget the two happy hounds, one happy hubby, and one helluva crystal collection.

Her life purpose is to use her creativity, experience and humor to inspire others to live lives filled with freedom and joy. And yes, that includes bringing freedom and joy to dogs.

Shop Policies

Processing Time: Orders are handcrafted and typically ship within 10 business days after ordering. Some orders may take longer based on scope of creation process.

Return Policy: Returns and exchanges are generally not accepted. Exceptions may possibly be made for specific situations. Please contact rynski@rynskilife.com within three days of receiving your order with any questions or concerns.

Care Instructions: Most metal art is designed for indoor or outdoor use. This includes using rust-resistant paint, galvanized sheet metal and clear coat for protection.  If used outdoors, be aware of the impact the weather conditions will have on your piece. Outdoor art does best when not in the path of a sprinkler and/or not exposed to harsh winter elements. You may spray a protective coating, such as clear coat, on the piece once a year or more to help preserve the painting.

FAQ's

Do you do custom orders? Yes! Please contact rynski@rynskilife.com with details and I can provide an estimate for the piece you want created. 

Can the signs be put on stakes in the yard? And do you provide the stakes? Yes and no. Yes: The signs work great on outdoor stakes. No: I do not provide the stakes.

You can use a wooden or metal rod, U-bar or T-bar sold at most hardware stores. My metal signs usually come with one hole in the top center and a ready-to-hang hook or chain. If you are planning to use a stake, let me know in advance and I can create an additional hole in the bottom center if desired. 

Can the signs be put on fences or walls? Yes. Metal art pieces usually come with one hole in the top center and a ready-to-hang hook or chain. If you are planning to secure your piece to a fence, wall or other fixture, let me know in advance if you would like additional holes created at the bottom or corners of the sign for improved security.

I love Rynski's work. I've purchased several over the years and this one was no different. Excellent quality and just perfect. In fact, it was so perfect, it was stolen. sob. Luckily I bought two and the other sign hasn't been stolen yet.
