Sounds like you had a busy day, too. Good to hear the ramp is no longer on a murderous chicken rampage.

SCG love the Raven quilt. Is Pippa the one that ate your wreath last year?

Good memory!! Yes, her and Caramel ripped the wreath off the door and began devouring it in the 30 seconds I wasn't watching. I like to have them out in fall - there's little they can eat and mess up so I don't have to watch them constantly.

Ate a wreath! Hope it was a real one! Lol!
Wife left for work the other day and I forgot the new bag of feed in her vehicle.
So the main coop got a handful of cracked corn and free range for the day.
Caught the dummies eating the buds of my wild azalea pinxter!!! Must not of been enough to make them sick or kill them, but I didn't want them damaging it either!

Dh mowed the grass around the coop today, and I cleaned the coop(s), all the water, and feed buckets, run(s), and I raked. Dh hauled, and dumped all the stuff I raked up. When we got done it was beautiful. They all like the ramp now, and are using it. It's easy to clean too. Tomorrow I'll get the totes, and turn them into nest boxes.

That's great!

Here are some of the projects I am still working on for Christmas presents.

I put a wall hanger on the back so these could be hung up for decorations. dsqard the turkey feathers are in the one for my
SIL. His is for sports he is interested in. Hunting, Fishing, Football.

These will be shadow boxes with wall hangers on them. I have to cut the boards to go in them still and paint them.
I also have to put some polyurethane on the one and add the Alabama Football stickers.

I thought maybe it might help some of y'all with ideas. I bought a set of 5 wooden unfinished trays from Walmart and the flowers and other girl decorations
off of ebay.

Chicka those will be wonderful presents! So very crafty! Don't you just love giving home made gifts? I love making them, giving them and receiving them. To me it means a lot that you took the time to think of what I like and make me something. I am sure that your family members will love them and I am so happy that the feathers worked out so well for you!

I'm busy knitting dish clothes... I found a good deal on cotton so using it up. Hopefully they will like em. Winterizing chickens. Had to explain to a local woman that my girls don't produce on demand. Chicka does some awesome crafts.... the syrup she makes... I wish I had gotten some.
