Handmade Wooden Duck Calls

January 31, 2010

My husband is pretty handy. He loves trying out new hobbies. One of his latest is turning wooden duck calls. He likes trying new woods, colors, textures. They come out very pretty - and I’m not a duck call connoisseur. There will be more items added to this shop soon, so check back often to see what he’s up to next.

I had started something like this awhile ago - but got a little slack in updating it. So, here we go. Today I thought I’d start out with something for the ‘grown-ups’ in the family. Yes, you too should have your portraits taken every once in awhile. Whether you are celebrating a special anniversary, an engagement, or just a holiday or even JUST BECAUSE, getting a professional portrait once in a while is just the ticket! After all, you go through changes as well.

Just like when you are selecting an outfit for family portraits, you should keep things simple. Keep colors in the same tones…and avoid opposing patterns. Following these simple rules will help keep the focus on the two of you, rather than your shirts!
