kids eat free sign

Take a piece of old barn board, paint it black, add some hand-painted lettering, distress a bit, seal with clear coat and you have a really unique birthday gift for someone special.

I'm pretty sure she liked it.

rules sign

Handmade out of plywood, leftover trim boards, black paint and A LOT of patience. The hand-painted lettering took forever, but it was totally worth it to see the look on hubby's face when I gave it to him for his birthday.

He wanted something to put in his office as a "gentle" reminder to his clients to grow up. (Ha! That's putting it about as nicely as I can.)

I have to admit though, I didn't want to see it leave the house. (And yes, I know I can always make another one, but will I? Ha!)

sauna bucket

I painted this as a Christmas gift for my sister-in-law. Now, I'm hoping for an invite to use her sauna.

see what i mean?

Based on the family picture woes, thought I'd share a Christmas card design that was vetoed by hubby. I thought it was funny. :)

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good hair day or year.
