My DH and DS made this wonderful ink holder for me that i have been coveting forever, I don't know what came over him but he made up his mind and made it in a week! I haven't filled it up yet, cuz i need to move some stuff around in my craft room and take some stuff down from the wall so he can hang it and then I can fill her up! Thanks honey!

What a beautiful gift from the heart! I've never seen one with so much detail. The Crown molding really makes it a piece of art in itself. Hubby and Son deserve lots of hugs and kisses for sure!

Wow... it's beautiful like a piece of fine furniture! What a neat way to show his love for you and support for your craft... and mighty practical, too! You're a lucky lady!
How fantastic. You can't buy anything this nice. Hand made gifts are just the best. I do a bit of woodwork, and I keep staring at this trying to figure out how your husband and son made this. Awsome present! Thanks for sharing it.

This is fabulous. Your husband could make money taking orders for these. I think storage ideas for craft rooms are so hard to find, they almost have to be custom made such as this is. Everyone's needs are different because our collections are unique. Merry Christmas and kudos to your family for giving something that is truly appreciated, nice they care and take an interest in what is important to you.
