The Crafty Life

My husband is not a carpenter and I am not a painter; however a couple years ago both our family's decided to start exchanging home-made gifts for Christmas. What???!!!

We are certainly not professionals and we have no form of training, but we definitely put thought and love into everything we do. This is our crazy crafty life.
