12 Days of a Crafty Christmas.

The 3rd Day of a Crafty Christmas: 60's House Plans

As a special gift for Christmas I got Luke -

[by way of much stealth and many a secret meeting with the lovely 

Cheryl who grew up as a girl in our house]

- the original blue print working drawings for our 60's house.

I spent a whole afternoon cutting the board to size and 

what felt like hours getting it to sit right in the frame.

But after all that it does look great and he was super surprised.

 It has been great having a relationship with the person 

who knows so much about our house, and she is so genuinely glad that

we are restoring it.

And without that relationship we would not have 

had the privilege of being able to copy the house plans.

Or know that some walls were originally pink!

Having these drawings is so important to Luke and 

to see him pour over them makes me happy too.

Even though when he points at dotted lines and says

"see how there was supposed to be a wall there",

I have no idea. Lucky he can read them!
