What a FUN idea I’ve found over at Red Oak Hollow blog! (…It’s highly creative, too.)

I’m sharing it here for fellow homebuilders who would like to surprise their loved one with a very “special” gift (read: *something for the house*) on a very special day.

See how to package your special gift… in a way that only a devoted homebuilder who loves you dearly could appreciate!

Daisy Mae, I’m with you! I would Soooo appreciate a gift like this. And the red velvet box only made it that much more special.

Thanks for sharing!

We’ll be watching your blog to see how your homebuilding turns out. We’re a few months behind you, and should break ground on our new log home in May or June ’07.
