Home made gifts
How many of you guys make home made gifts for your spouse, kids, or family and friends? Over the past 14yrs doing Christmas with my wife's family, they do home made Christmas. It's really cool seeing what others come up with. A couple of her brothers' wives are now doing it for a side profession and make some really neat stuff. I'm no carpenter, but I try. This year they didn't do it, but I made my wife an end table. She wanted a nice heavy duty end table that is farm style so to speak. I looked around and couldn't find any really her style, or affordable. A guy I work with builds nice wood furniture and had some teak wood from an old barn. i'm not sure if it is teak but I know it is very hard and must have been floor joices. Haha It was super thick but I used a circular saw and cut it down and came up with this. It isn't perfect, sorry for the mess. I need to make a little area for wood working tools to make these jobs easier on myself.Last edited by 40FordDeluxe; 01-06-2015 at 06:37 PM.
