For Christmas this year I made my parents a wall hanging that says "family". There are 6 letters in the word family and there are 6 kids in my family. Each letter represents one of us kids. So I made different images to put on the front of the letters that goes with each individuals personality, hobby's, things they are good at, you know stuff like that. I also had everyone write a message for mom and dad and put those on the back of their letter. I really hope that my parents like the gift! I think it turned out pretty cute. Here are some pictures of it =DThe back where everyone's messages are.
Hopefully you can tell what everything is on the fronts but if not here's a list of what they are and my thought process
F (Sarah) sewing machine and spool of thread with needle. She is awesome at sewing
A (Josh) mixing bowl, various ingredients and cookie. Makes amazing cookie bars!
M (Lars) a open book. You could be "deep" and say Lars is like an open book or that he has to study a lot for law school however you'd like to look at it lol
I (Darby) “comedy/tragedy” mask, paint brush and paint splatter. No brianer because she is artistic.
L (Maren) knitting needles and a cozy home. Have you seen those adorable hats she's knitted for the boys? They are GREAT! And she has made such a cozy home for her family
Y (Ashley) scissors and Patch. The scissors could represent a lot of different things for me... doing hair or anything crafty that I do tend to need use of scissors at some point. And Patch b/c she's my baby!
and here are close ups of each of the letters because they took awhile to design and actually get made so I want to show them off =D
