Name Plaques




Every child I know loves to see their name on something.
These five children come from three different families.
Bryce is our oldest grandson; Maura is in our Sunday School class;
Maddie, Trent and Dane are siblings of a friend of mine.

Dane, Bryce and Maura's plaques are all made of cherry;
Trent's is made of oak; and Maddie's of Black Walnut (my favorite!)

Each plaque is treated with Tung Oil. This serves two purposes:
to give the piece a richer look (it really brings out the true color
of the wood); and to help preserve the wood from drying out.

They are fun to make and even more fun to give away!
