My Talented Dad

If any of you know my dad, he is a very talented and skilled woodworker. Every time I get the chance, I ask him to make me things. (There is something about my dad making me something out of wood that is so special to me! Maybe it's because I feel like I have a part of him in my house at all times. Who knows!) My dad loves to have a challenge and create things that he has never done before so in comes my request for floating shelves. My creative father put these together for me and they turned out so perfect! Everyone kept telling me it would be so much easier to just go buy them, but I really REALLY wanted my dad to make them for me. Because I am a little younger than my two sisters, I haven't had the chance very often to have my dad make me things for my house so this was a perfect time! With these floating shelves now hung on my walls, my bedroom is complete! Thanks dad I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!!(And of course just a picture of the whole wall all put together.)

My birthday was this week and my mother-in-law picked this out for me to go on my night stand. Don't you think it matches perfectly with everything else? I just love it!

More pictures to come from my birthday and another wood piece my dad made me. Can't wait to paint it and put it in my entry way.
