February is a special month at Cross Cut Creations. It’s the month when the 98.1 WKDD Radiothon raises money for Akron Children’s Hospital, and it’s when the story behind my most important resin mix — Miracle Maker — comes into full focus. This mix isn’t just a customer favorite. It’s the reason I’m here, the reason I create, and the reason Cross Cut Creations gives back every year.

The Story Behind Miracle Maker

Miracle Maker began long before I ever poured resin. When I was born, I faced a series of serious medical challenges, including a brain bleed that should have left me dependent on others for life. But the doctors and staff at Akron Children’s Hospital didn’t give up. Their dedication, skill, and compassion gave me the chance to grow into a fully functioning, independent adult — something that still feels extraordinary.

Miracle Maker is my way of honoring that gift.

Every blank poured in this mix carries that story: resilience, hope, and gratitude. It’s a reminder that miracles aren’t abstract — they’re made by real people doing life‑changing work every day.

Why Miracle Maker Is My Most Important Resin Mix

Out of every resin mix I’ve created, Miracle Maker stands apart. Here’s why:

• It represents my personal history, including the challenges I overcame thanks to Akron Children’s Hospital.

• It gives back with purpose — for every Miracle Maker blank sold, $1.00 is donated to Akron Children’s Hospital.

• It connects the maker community to a meaningful cause, allowing turners to support something bigger with every project.

• It symbolizes gratitude, poured into every swirl and color combination.

Miracle Maker isn’t just a resin blank. It’s a thank‑you letter in the form of a pour.

February and the WKDD Radiothon

Each February, the 98.1 WKDD Radiothon raises funds to support the hospital that changed my life. This event is a powerful reminder of how many families rely on Akron Children’s Hospital for hope, healing, and second chances.

That’s why February is the month when Miracle Maker takes center stage. It’s the perfect time to share the story, highlight the cause, and invite makers to join me in giving back.

When you purchase a Miracle Maker blank, you’re not just buying a resin mix — you’re helping support the next child who needs a miracle of their own.

What Makes the Miracle Maker Mix Unique

Beyond its meaning, Miracle Maker is visually striking. The colors are bright, uplifting, and full of movement — a reflection of the energy and optimism behind the mix. Turners love how it behaves on the lathe, how it finishes, and how each blank feels like a one‑of‑a‑kind celebration.

It’s a mix that stands out on the shelf and shines even brighter in a finished pen or turning project.
