Better late than never
My hubby asked me to make some small crosses for his coworkers as small Christmas presents. His boss was in the Marine Corps so it made sense to make his cross USMC related. He took it home and his wife loved it and looked up our Facebook page and promptly ordered two more. For their nephew and his girlfriend. High school soccer soon began along with preparations for my daughter's college soccer banquet so the making of the crosses took a little longer than I would have hoped. She wasn't in any hurry...thank goodness. Finally finished them today. She was the first customer who requested custom graphic designs. One cross has family names all over it in different fonts and sizes. The other has pictures of her nephew during his bull rides. Both are 16" tall and were $25 plus the extra $5 custom graphic charge..so basically $30 each. They were a lot of fun to make and I hope they like them as much as I do. Each time I make a new cross I think it is my favorite. Will post pictures of these two crosses later today.

Hi Amy
ReplyDeleteI just want you to know that I was the receipient of the family cross and Brad, my boyfriend received the bullriding cross from his aunt Chris. I love the family cross it has my name, Brad's name and Brad's three girls names. Nothing could have been more original or special. I will treasure it. I will also be ordering one for my mom. Thank you for doing such beautiful work. Chris put a lot of thought into our gifts and you made it a reality. Thank you and bless you and your family.
You are very welcome. So glad you liked them. Our order forms are on our Facebook page (Crisscrossed Crafts and More). It is public so anyone should be able to pull up the order form. You can then either mail or email it to me.
