    Drop Dead Gorgeous! Wish I had a talented husband. He's too busy hitting the golf balls! But, he's pretty sweet though.
    I love how everything looks.

    I Love it, I think it was very cool of him to do that. It may of not been what you both agreed on, but a hand made gift can break all the rules in my mind. Happy Holidays xo Mary

    A lucky girl, indeed. You tell Mr. John he did a GREAT job and there are lots of jealous ladies out here in Blogland. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I LOVE your understated look. Seems most appropriate to keep it simple, but lovely.

    Hugs,
