Or… You could create etch a giant logo on the roof, one tile at a time.

Ha ha! No one has slate around here. Don’t thing engraving a composite shingle would be very good and it would probably look like…um, no good, either.

I know! We’re practically neighbors! I don’t ‘do’ big cities very well anymore, so anything I can’t find around down here, I pretty much do without.

So happy to see gift giving transitioning from gift cards to hand made items!

yeah, i’ve never enjoyed gift cards. we’ve been giving only things we make for christmas for the last few years, now, and it’s almost always been well-received. this year we’re going to try to make the in-laws donate to a cause we like instead of giving us anything (we’re relatively privileged adults; if there’s something i want, i tend to just get it). i’m not all that hopeful that they’ll listen, though…
