Handy man

I realized soon after our marriage, if not before, that Ken comes in mighty handy around the home.

Whether it's painting the bathroom or kitchen or living room,  or building a chest of drawers, or designing and building kitchen cabinets, or adding dormers to the upstairs,  or building a family room addition, or just about anything else that most people have to pay others to do, Ken does for free.


Recently I've spotted white birch candle holders on Pinterest, Etsy, and various blogs. I like their Country Christmas look and their practicality.

I mentioned to Ken a few days ago that I'd like to have a set of them.

...Voila! Just like that.

  1. Great idea. A plague of some kind hit the birch trees around here & they died in great numbers. Last year the complex had dozens cut down. Would have loved some of these candle holders from some of that wood. Big problem, no Ken!
