Good morning,
We brought our new baby, Elsa, home yesterday.
Catherine, Penny, and I went to get her. Catherine was driving and I was holding Elsa who promptly fell asleep in the car. Penny is Elsa's great, great, great aunt.
When we got home we were greeted by Daddy, Erik, and Wendy.
Baby Elsa is fearless. She was in the middle of everything immediately.
So sweet!
:),
Lois

Needlework and Wood Working Update - March, 2019
Good morning,
Here's this months's Needlework and Wood Working Update of the items we have completed since last month's Update.
I'm starting with the needlework items this time. The Stained Glass Garden Design Large Afghan Blanket has been added to the shop. It will surely brighten any bed room, living room, den, or even sick room. This is one of the blankets that can be loved by all ages. $155. Click here for more images and information.
Here's a unique Toilet Tissue Topper in earth tones that has been added to the shop. We have them in many colors, but if we don't have yours, just let me know and I'll make up a custom order for you. $8. Click here to see more images and information.
It was hard to photo these dark blue fingerless gloves. These are knit from wool and are so soft and warm These were a custom order that has been delivered.
This is something very, very special. My Honey made this to celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary. It is now displayed in our living room. Just beautiful!
This piece is titled "The Vikings are at the Roots of our Family Tree." It sold as soon as I listed it in the shop so I've asked Kjell to carve another. The second one is coming soon to the shop.
This hardwood box is even more gorgeous in person than in the image. $76. More images showing all the angles and inside the drawers are here.
This ring dish is something new. This one is spoken for, but...
...this one is available in the shop. The edge is engraved with Celtic braid. $34. More images and information here.
Here's another ring dish engraved in a Rippling Waves design. $34. More images and information here. What a lovely gift for a Fifth Anniversary (wood is the traditional five year gift) or for any occasion.
That's a wrap for the past month. We sincerely appreciate your support, encouragement, and purchases, too! There is still time to shop for St. Patrick's Day so come take a look at the more than three hundred items available here EvensensProductions.com.
As Kjell just said the other day, our hobbies have turned into our retirement business. We are loving what we are doing!
All the very best,
Lois

In Like a Lion
Good morning,
Beyond my table garden you can see the snow is starting again. By the time we were finished we had about two inches on the ground and very, very slippery streets.
Hopefully, March will go out like a lamb.

Anniversary Dinner
Good morning,
We enjoyed our anniversary dinner at The Melting Pot. The image above was the last item we had, the chocolate fondue dessert. It was even better than you can imagine.
The Melting Pot certainly knew how to deliver the Wow!
This is the first course of our four course dinner, cheese fondue served with veggies, fruit, and bread.
The entire evening was great fun!
All the best,
Lois

Guard Dogs
Good morning,
Our three pups do a great job of guarding our home.
They warn us whenever a cat walks across our front porch or a person walks down the street.
We are so lucky to be so well protected!
