Handmade

A few handmade things today.

 I can't remember who made this..It was a gift to my husband.

But they did a great job!

Made entirely out of coke cans.

 The wheels are made from bottle caps

And 

little springs behind the propeller.

A gift from my dear friend Edna.

Her husband made it..entirely of wood.

My husband made this churn out of wood.

Maple, I think.

He is not able to work with wood any more,

So

I will never part with it!

Sometimes I hear people complain about gifts they receive from others..

"Not suitable, Something I will never use" etc.

But

The way I feel about it,

If someone cares enough about me to give me anything,

Whether I will actually use it or not,

I am thankful.

And
I will keep it!

I feel there must be a tiny bit of love in there

 for someone to actually give something.

And

People are more important than objects!!

Anyway...

I have said it before...I am a Pack Rat.

I keep everything!!

Happy Saturday!

Love,

Shirley
