In the above pictures I am modeling this season's garage wear, a 15-year-old ski coat my hubby so graciously let me borrow to stay warm while making Christmas presents.
We basically gave the same gift to everyone in our family this year. Ethan and I made these adorable welcome signs to put in front of the house. And because we're brilliant, we started making them one week before Christmas. Yep, that's right. I learned to use a power sander and sanded at least 50 pieces of wood. I also used a radial arm saw . . . whoo-hoo! But I only used it once (under careful supervision), because as a person who has flooded the bathroom by leaving water running (twice), I can be a little distracted. Power tools and distracted girls do not a happy pair make.
