| I have used leftover pieces of plywood that came in packing boxes and made these handing swinging kids for the garden to sell. I like them so much it's hard to part with them, LOL
A little paint and some gems and recycled bits and bobs and each little gal and guy is different and look so nice in the garden:-0) |

| WOW...how cute are they! You did a fantastic job painting them too...love the red one especially! |
|
| That red and white one with the ladybugs is my favorite and I took the most time trying to figure out what I wanted to do with it. I wasn't sure if they would sell for $15 each but the 10 I made have been sold and the orders keep coming in for more. I need to hound my son for more wood:-) |

| They are all so cute! I would imagine that people would just have to have 2. I think $15 is very reasonable for one of those cuties. |
|
| Those are adorable. I'm not surprised they're selling as fast as you can make them. |
|
| WOW those are very sweet. I'd pay $15 for one. |
|
| Those are soooo cute. What a wonderful painter you are. $15.00 is very resonable....no doubt they sold |
|
| What little cuties!! Glad you are selling them & taking orders! Might want to paint girl & boy so they are facing each other in case someone has 2 trees to hang them from.(Just a couple of pairs like that to see how they sell). TFS Jan |

| DITTO on what everyone else said. Those are totally adorable and your paint job on them is perfect. I'd buy them and can see why they would sell easily! hugs, Karen |
