Memory Table
This memory table was a very special gift our whole family made for Nana and Papa. My brother-in-law took a carpentry class where he built this table. Then, everyone worked together to make a list of memories and drawings. Our list of memories was so large that we had to vote for our top 28. We actually sent out a ballot! When the list was finalized, we began sketching squares to represent each memory. We divided the list so everyone could help with the artwork. It was such a fun trip down memory lane!
We have some talented artists in the family who did the lion’s share of the work, as they designed the center and helped clean up some of the design on the squares. They used a Dremel tool to engrave the words, squares, and parts of the pictures. We all helped with the painting. It turned out really beautiful. The border has a bunch of Nana’s famous quotes. It’s a family treasure.
