This weeks masterpiece is actually a project my hubby and I made together a couple of years ago.
It's a very large swordfish that Charles cut out of plywood and glued bamboo skewers to the top fin. And I painted it.
The lettering on it doesn't show in this picture, but it says "To The Beach" with an arrow underneath the lettering, It was hung on our front porch.
One day while sitting on the porch, I was thinking that it might make a pretty great chalkboard.
"Hot fun in the Summertime". Do you remember that song? I think it's from the 70's. Anyhooooo~
Here are a few close up pics:
