growing. . . .

I've just finished two more growth charts.  How funny! Two different people with the same last name.  :-)  I decided to go wider with these.  That way there was room for the writing going down them.  And I do have to say I'm in love!  They were both stained the same.  The lighting must have really been different when I took the pictures.  The true color is the first picture.

In Memory of Nicholas. . . .

 Patty's son passed away at the age of 14.  She has since had more children.  We added the birth heights of ALL her children.  Then Nicholas' final height. I'm so glad I could help with this memory.




Boys and tractors. . . .

 This growth chart is going to The Berning home.  Boys who love their John Deere tractors!  I wasn't sure upon the request, but it sure turned out just adorable!

growth chart. . . .

 I made this growth chart as a Christmas gift for a good friend of mine who has a new granddaughter. I had seen one of these on pinterest. . . and thought what a great gift! So, guess what I attempted. This one is stained with early american stain. I'm also working on a dark walnut stained one for a another good friend of mine. I am pondering on this one as I want it to be done right! Patty's son passed away a few years ago. And I want to be able to put his height on the growth chart along with her other children. Maybe a cross on the ribbon? And angel wings next to his last height? I need to get to Hobby Lobby!

If you are interested in a growth chart. . . . . send me a message. Stained? Painted? Name? Ideas? I have an idea of a little boys growth chart. Painted baseballs with a rope on the top to hang it. Or what about a white washed growth chart with pink flowers. Awwww!

never met friend. . . .

I have a friend that lives in Saint Francis Kansas that I have never met in person. Somewhere. Somehow. I found her online many years ago. She makes the most gorgeous paper bag albums! I first met her by special ordering a paper bag album for Jessica's college graduation on ebay. She also made Michele's college graduation paper bag album. I've made some paper bag albums myself, but I just can't seem to pull them off like she does. Wow! She also makes cards and loves to paint.

She sent me a beautiful painting she did. 


What a sweetheart! And I DO love my cowboy boots!

So I made her a set of angel wings. And she LOVED them! 


Someday. . . . . . we will meet in person!
