jimmer Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 They all sound great. This is the place to ask when you need some answers. Something historical for the area is always cool. A good map of the area/lake on the wall is always nice for visitors. Hard to pass up on the French maid though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vance Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 This is what I did for my buddy and his wife for their cottage. Step 1-,got a large old circular saw blade(30in),Step 2- got a buddy to clean it up,Step 3- I took lots of pics of the cottage from the water,step 4 - had an artist friend paint on the saw blade a picture of the cottage.Everybody LOVED it...Ok it did take about a year to put this all together but it worked out great. vance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Cliff Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Tried the French maid idea once, wife told me that by the time the divorce was over I wouldn't even have the cottage never mind the French maid. I think I'd scrap that idea if I were you. The map is a really good idea, I have seen many of them in friends cottages, you never get tired of looking at them! I nice sign would also work, many others have nice signs but their's would be unique! Good on you for taking the time to try to find the "perfect" gift, says a lot about your character!
