My First Handy Man!

Nope - not B... my first ever handy man - My Dad! You may remember last month when I posted about the wonderful bookshelves that my Dad constructed for Peanut's nursery.

Well, that post stuck with one of my blogging girls here in Toronto, and not too long after that was posted, my Dad got an email from her. She was looking to hire him for a project of her own... a 10 foot outdoor table for her backyard. Shannon from 8 foot 6, has a major backyard makeover going on (which is gorgeous!) and I was so thrilled when I saw the finished photos of the solid cedar table and benches that he made for her...

... B and I are wondering why we've never asked for a beautiful table? Then again, it's probably because we have him waiting onside to build us a custom vanity for the bathroom when that reno begins in the late summer/early fall... and some custom kitchen cabinets in the future. 

Thanks Shannon for sharing these photos (I never would've seen that gorgeous table otherwise). If you're in the GTA and would like to hire him for a custom project - he is available. You can always email me or him directly! 

I feel pretty lucky to have him not only as a Handy Man, but as my Dad... and Grandfather to my daughter (who will at some point have to join the real world... right?)...
