You know those wonderful harry and david corporate gift baskets? The kind that get sent out to company's around the holidays. Well back when I was still doing the 9-to-5 in December, I nabbed a butter/cheese knife from one of them. It was free! and it was an ugly brick red.
So with some charcoal and green tea paint and a stencil via contact paper and the cricut - I fixed it!
The little bee is so springy!
And for an amusing story - I was mistaken for a high-schooler today. It is officially Field Trip to DC time. I was waiting on a train platform this morning and there was a group of students behind me. The teacher wanted to have everyone's attention so no one would get lost. So you put her hand on my shoulder so I would turn around and pay attention. I turned and sweetly told her that I wasn't her student but I understood because I was the shortest one! She seemed a bit embarrassed (I was too!) but we all had a good laugh.

What a nice knife for the Spring table! And very funny story - I am 6 ft. tall, so growing up I was the one always confused for the older one - and not in a good way!

What a great idea! I must have a bunch of these in one of my kitchen drawers. I think we get one of these gift baskets every Christmas!
