That Old Thing

I was so thrilled to see that my sister {One Cheap B*tch} set up our Dad’s Etsy shop!  It is called That Old Thing and I am thrilled to see that he is listing his hand-made and painted wood pieces.  I can attest that he puts a lot of thought and love into each piece, making them as realistic as possible with wood and paint.  Here are just a few of his pieces.

thatoldthing.dogHow cute is this little guy?

thatoldthing.noahsark This great Noah’s Ark set.  What a great gift idea and it makes for such a nice statement piece!

thatoldthing.catIf you get a chance, I hope you will swing by and see some of his other pieces.  He has more dogs and a couple of cats, as well.  These make for a great gift idea as they are a good size to fit on a desk, shelf, windowsill or side table.

Don’t forget my Sunflowerguy.com giveaway, which ends on Friday, November 19th!  You could have fresh flowers for your Thanksgiving table!

    Kathy, those are fantastic. He is very good! I will have to check those out. Thanks so much for stopping by. The grain sack is just around a regular pillow right now with the extra length folded back. Not sure what I am going to do with it.
