Hi from Santa Rosa, California - and Happy Anniversary to me!

Submitted by knestlein on Fri, 09/24/2010 - 05:55

I just wanted to share with someone who would appreciate this - it's my husband's and my 5th anniversary, and he bought me 1: a jewelry box, and 2: a set of clamps! And I'm super excited! He also considered getting me power tools (however, whatever he was looking at was outside the budget). He knows me well. :)

Yay for making things!

Congratz!  And I know just where you are coming from.  My hubby thinks I am the coolest (and wierdest) woman he has ever met.  Dont take me to the mall to shop for a gift, just get out a tool catalog!  He kept asking me what I wanted for Christmas, and I kept pointing to the Kreg pocket hole jig set.  It's now sitting in the closet waiting to get wrapped in colorful paper, and calling to me to get used!  (He had said, no, you didnt want any clothes that you desperatly need, you wanted that tool, that its probably gonna take you 5 years to use).  Then I showd him the plans for the PB Printer collection knockoff.  (Exactly what I want to put in the living room.)..  And then the Recycling Center (to use as a holders for laundry baskets in the bathroom), and then the Armoire, and then Farmhouse Vanity, and then the Workbench Console (which I want to modify to make into a long sought after Trestle Table for my kitchen..  and then the chairs...  and then the...   and then..  and then..  and..  and...  and...     5 years??  dont think so..   Stand back buddy, and give me the Blue store card, I need to make some sawdust!!!  Love this site Ana, keep up the great work!!
