Travis Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 How are your handmade Christmas gifts coming along? Are you on track to getting them finished in time, or are you behind? Me? I'm behind. I'm still trying to figure out what to make for some folks. I think I have an idea or two I'm going to try out this weekend.

ChelCass Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 All My Secret Santa exchanges are finished and shipped. Just got the wood I ordered so am cutting the last two ornaments for my Sister in laws and then I will be done. I did a lot of them this summer so I wouldn't be so rushed. 1st. time I am ahead of the game. Travis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatie Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I have not cut one ornament yet this year I have been too busy cutting orders that I received before I went away, while I was away (for relatives in the UK) and since I got back. It sounds as if the money is rolling in but for everyone I cut for money I seem to cut 2 for love. LOL Again working on the one that broke last week so I am taking it slowly because I do not want to try a third time. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayton717 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I'have a couple more gifts to make, and I have to get them done this weekend. We are ging away next weekend so I won't be able to get shop time. If I would say on task and not work on other things, it wouldn't be a problem getting them finished.

Kepy Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I have 5 finished for family, 4 for the people who deliver meals to my mother, 1 partial for the lady who cleans and most of the ornaments for the exchanges. Might have been finished but the crew who was to move the rest of my tools decided this week was the time so spent Wed. moving 2 16' trailers of junk. Having a bad back, bad lungs and too many yrs, I was really done in. Still have lots to go through to figure out what will fit in the shop and what will go to an auction. On top of that I came down with a bad cold the next day and with my lung problems, have to try to avoid pneumonia. Needless to say, I am ready for Christmas to be over and now we have cold weather coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campasano Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 I just recently moved and all of my tools are still packed so I could not make anything for Christmas. We just about got all of the household things in place, I hope to get to my tools real soon. Merry Christmas to all. Mike Travis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
