My dad worked in a cabinet shop. When he returned home around dinner time every evening, my sister and I would rush out to be the first to hug daddy. It was then that we would be greeted with wide open arms and the smell of sawdust. Like the pine or oak from which he built beautiful things, Daddy's arms were stong and protective, yet gentle enough to bend to the winds of life and shade us from the heat and pressures that we would face.
For this reason, I am featuring today, items having to do with trees or made of wood by my fellow Sheteam members.
Wood you... take this sentimental journey with me?

I sure do know what you mean about the smell of sawdust...my husband always smells lovely when he comes in from the workshop! Thanks for including our pull toy on your list. :)
Great memories, eh? You've picked some nice items to feature; checked them all out!
I do love the smell of sawdust, too - lovely featured items!
I love the scent and sight of wood! Beautiful items.
What a lovely surprise, to see my painting in the SheTeam blog! My dad too used to do some woodworking, and I remember the sawdust smell vividly. (The pull-toy is so cute!)
