“I NEED SKILLS! I wish I had shrub trimming skills! I was trying to trim my hedge yesterday and I just screwed it all up! I even considered making a hippo shape out of it just to be interesting, lol. It would probably look better than a normal hedge shape. Maybe the cool tool will help me! :)

I can do just about anything with a needle (knit, crochet, needlepoint, etc.) and am not half bad with a paintbrush but have not done much with wood yet although DH bought me a compound mitre saw one year for a gift – guess who uses it?

Teresa says
I NEED SKILLS! I wish I could draw. My stick figures even look bad!
