November! Yikes!
I don’t know if you all are aware of this, but it is November already. I am excited because that means that I am already behind schedule building my amazing holiday gifts. So, either I will need to work faster, or my projects may need to become a bit less amazing. Well, this is not the first time I have developed plans more aggressive than my available free time. I’ve got one request for a fire truck for my grandson, and I have a couple of other ideas for the other little ones … so I have my work cut out for me. I think I am up for it, and there are few things I like better than making gifts for folks I love.
So what about you? Are you done with Christmas gift building? Started? Procrastinating? And what is on the docket this year for the shop-made gift-giving season? Not only am I interested just out of curiosity, but you may inspire your fellow woodworkers who are searching for that perfect idea.
