Just before my stumpy arrived, I got into wood laser burning and finally, after about 4 months, I'm getting back into it. I missed it and the little cash flow it occasionally brought.... My 1st piece was yesterday. My example is in honor of my parents.... Please share yours and pics if you got them...

So lovely this is Mommabear, and a precious keepsake.

Sure any you make from now on to sell will be gratefully received by people and treasured too.

In the past I enjoyed decorating birthday cakes etc. Maybe in time I will get back to doing those.

Waterfowl and turkey hunting, fishing. I won't post pics because a lot of members aren't really fond of pictures of that stuff.

Do it, my friend. It's another part of feeling normal. Just bake a cake, decorate it, and step back. Smile and yell, "Yesssssssss!" Thank you for the kind words. I will be posting this one and take a few custom orders if they come....

I play music in a band with my husband and we raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He and I occasionally play just the two of us in bars, local fundraiser walks, and pretty much whenever we're asked to play. We started playing "court" gigs - outdoor music for our neighbors - during the pandemic. I always say: what we lack in talent we make up for in spunk!

I'm in awe of people who can do this. The results are so beautiful and it must be meditative on some level while you're decorating.

Mommabear, that's so beautiful.

Hi all, my wife and I like trail riding with our SxS four-wheeler.

Past Member

That is wonderful what you do eefyjig, enjoyable for you both, and all who listen along surely join in singing.

So very caring and thoughtful regarding the Make-A-Wish foundation.

Such a lot of pleasure I got out of decorating cakes.

I went into the kitchen a little while ago, Mommabear, and voila, made these sultana buns.

Tuck in everyone. :)

I'm a Shriner clown and I have a ton of projects that I hope to finish soon. I have a clown car, a 1986 RV that the mechanics are all done on it, and several small jobs in my garage! I've been retired since 2007 due to my ileostomy problems. I'm also into surgery every year or so since my first one in 2010. I'm at 17 surgeries currently from the botched job the VA did on me! Lol, you have to keep a good attitude and get up every day and do something constructive! Yesterday was the first day I didn't do anything in years! I said I needed a rest day and never got dressed at all! But you also need a day sometimes to recoup from being tired. I enjoy life and every time it knocks me on my ass, I get up, flip off Karma, and keep moving! I don't know why I'm still here but I am.

Absolutely beautiful! I love it... Great work, buddy.... You can tell by the craftsmanship the pride of your pieces... Keep creating.

That's awesome Mommabear, I love making things with my hands too. The hobby I love most is gardening. I grow mini roses as well as berries, grapes, and I recently purchased a cherry and peach tree. Most of my stuff is grown in pots, and I am obsessed with finding new things to grow, lol.

MS18, what a great hobby we currently are surrounded by apple trees, and we planted plum, peach, walnut (my hubby's babies), and lilacs. I also love my roses; currently, I have yellow and orange. It's rewarding to watch new life grow and flourish, especially by your own hands. Awesome job, girl! Keep tilling the earth and growing new life. No ideal hands, girl.

I got into using resin about 4 months before my emergency colostomy. I really enjoyed it, but have not done much of it since then.

That sounds so nice. I love lilacs and I'm hoping to get a plum tree next year. Soon I'll have my own orchard, lol.

Thanks. I have a lot of them, but I try to be respectful that some don't care to see dead stuff.

That looks like a great hobby! My hobbies are painting, recording music, cooking, and gardening. You can say I like the arts in many ways. Mike

Did you say cooking? I like people who cook, as I am not a good cook. And I love the arts, but not super talented. I do love to sing, but more along the lines of a karaoke singer than a recording one. Would love to hear a song sometime.
