This year I received a very very special Christmas present – an oil painting that my nana commissioned as a gift for my grandpa. He used to be an avid gardener and he won many prizes for his roses. After three different roses won the blue ribbon Nana had this painting done. My mom had it reframed and Too built a crate for it and shipped it down to me. It arrived today. And I love it. Can’t wait to get it up on the wall.

I'm amazed you guys had enough tools to get that box open....but good thing, they'll come in handy in the house.
Tooooo
We're handy! Hey, remember all the work I did on the gallery? Or the time I scrapped 12 layers of wallpaper off the livingroom?
Extreemly handy...
That this Christmas gift could combine flowers & gardening, nostalgia, family history, art and even an opera star into one frame is pretty cool!

Wonderful! I DO love it. If you need me to get a protective squad on it 24/7 we can do that to make sure 'no one' tries to take it. That is, if you don't mind carnies in the house :)
You know, it looks so good with it's new frame, maybe you should just send it back---sounds dangerous down thar!
