Thanksgiving Makings
(OK Yes I know this is a wee bit out of order. But I am just getting some of these pictures from Dale so hang in there.)
I wanted to take a gift to my mom's and Dales friends Danny and Chrissie for Thanksgiving. I figured it was the least I could do for them opening up their homes to us on Thanksgiving. So Dale and I got up that morning and went walking through the woods for Holly, Evergreens, and Pine Cones. I then made a wreath for my mom and a nice little candle arrangement for Dales friends. I was pretty pleased with the way the wreath turned out :-)
Dale's Birthday Present for Me
Ok so Dale was a bit upset that I had posted pictures of everyone else's gifts but his. Truth is, I wanted to post the pictures of the making of my wonderful gift! And of coarse he had all of the pictures. So here they are...
Dale decided to make me a knife from scratch for my Birthday. This all started when some friends of ours came over for a bonfire and a brother and sister team forged a nice little knife. She was so kean on her knife and I thought it was pretty cool myself. So Dale went to work starting to make mine. He had a vision of using one of his Celtic Crosses in the handle. He was then worried it would look funny with the cross on just one side. Lucky enough, I had a very similar cross and about the same size. So I gave him mine to put in the other side. So the handle is a marriage of my cross and his.
It turned out simply amazing! I don't think I have ever had a guy make ME something. I am always knitting for others. So this truly truly means allot to me. Thank you love!
