Happy Father's Day from the OFG Team!

We Love Father's

We Love Father's and here is to you Dad!

Marsh from www.etsy.com/shop/MsCraftyTouch shares:

Fishing is a very serious sport in my family and consequently "my men" are good at it. They have been accused by some not so diligent as being "fish whisperers" so when I saw this background I just had to decorate with it. Finding the old cupboard front was an additional bonus.

My daddy took us to the beach every summer, he was so happy and carefree at the beach. I always get a good feeling when I see the ocean, take in a deep breath and relax . My daddy has been gone since I was 30, I wish he could have been around to see me raise my family. We love the beach also.

Barb from Barb's Heartstrokes www.etsy.com/shop/barbsheartstrokes says:

My father is a metal and wood worker and my grandfather was a carpenter. They would have many different cabinets and drawers full of odds and end. As a kid, I was forever looking through all the little drawers trying to find a certain size nail, staple or screw for each of them. This little tin cabinet reminds me of both of them. Now I notice I do the same thing for my husband and all of his little drawers of treasures!

Thank you all for sharing your talent and wonderful thoughts on Fathers!

This unique piece was designed in remembrance of my Father and his love of Fishing. He was an wonderful Outdoorsman, we spent many days together at local lakes and streams catching our limit. As a High School Teacher & Scout Master he shared his knowledge with many children and delighted in their enthusiasm to learn. This Papa Mouse with Children titled "Catch of the Day" captures the joy and excitement of Fishing with my Dad. 

Johanna Haack from www.etsy.com/shop/TheWoodGrainGallery shared the next two wonderful items:

I wanted to create a piece of wood art that would honor my nephew and all EMT/fireman who on a daily basis put their lives on the line to rescue strangers in their time of need. Thank you for your service!

When I look at this wood-carved wall weather station, it reminds me of both my husband and father who are passionate about their dogs and loved spending time with them outdoors. This is a tribute to their best friends and the unconditional love they give on a daily basis. 

Peggy from www.etsy.com/shop/FolkHome shares fun item:

When my husband and I were first married 35 years ago he did not have the necessary tools for woodworking/furniture making. That did not stop him from making a crib for our first child. It was made with the few hand tools he had. That crib lasted through three children and waits in our attic for our first grandchild. These coat hooks that I made from antique levels remind me of his dedication to our family.

Suwashi from www.etsy.com/shop/WoodenPencilCo says'"Both prints are inspired by my husband Todd who loves outdoor and mountain."

This pillow reminds me of fathers in suits.

Lucy from The Farmer's Attic shares this about her father:

As a kid, I used to love watching my father shave. I especially remember him using the cup and bristle brush to lather up the soap. He would then lather his face to prepare for shaving. He not only used the replaceable razor blades, he also used the straight edged razor. I can still see him using the strap to sharpen the blade! Men's bar soap always reminds me of those times.

Sue from Lodge Decor and More shares:

This wood serving tray with handles reminds me of my dad because as a child growing up, we spent hours upon hours going fishing. My dad taught me how to bait a worm, how to tie a knot, and how to take the fish off the hook. I sure miss him.

Pamela from Maplea's Rag Cloth Dolls shares about her father:

This plate is designed towards my husband and my dad I feel my dad as always a good example by teaching me to honest, loyal, kind, friendly, to enjoy life respect others and my has taught my children this example so I work hard to be like my dad.  I see my son trying to be a lot like his dad and grand father.  My son adores both and loves them and so do I and so does my daughter. I have learned so much from them both.

Barb from Barb's Heartstrokes tell us about her father and husband:

This Flag reminds me of my Husband who served in the military. He is a great Dad and has a great love for our country.

My Dad makes my frames...so with out him helping me create I would not have my business. Thanks Dad!

Thank you for sharing about Father's and your talent!
