East Coast Houses
We are writing you from Red Deer, Alberta where we live. Wayne was born and raised in Bishop's Falls and he came to Alberta for work in 1994. While in Red Deer, Wayne met me (Connie), an Albertan, and eventually we married and took up permanent residence in Red Deer. Wayne is a real handyman and I am a crafter so I manage to keep him busy building the ideas that pop into my head! Several years ago I asked Wayne to put together a 7 house Jellybean Row style unit out of some old barn wood that we had - I was making a gift for a friend. Well, this gift was so popular that we have had many requests since and make all sizes - from 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 house units to 'outport' houses on driftwood (always with a clothesline lol). We have donated many of these items to fundraisers for a number of charities in our area that we support and they are always a popular item. They are so much fun to make - Wayne builds and paints them and then turns the item over to me and I decorate them. There are never two units alike - all are unique. As I sit here and read the latest edition of Downhome, I thought that your readers might get a kick out of the pictures that I have attached. And thank you for a great magazine - we've had a subscription for years. Submitted By: NULL
