A Beautiful Gift From China!!!

Yesterday Mike brought home a beautiful paper cutting art piece that a co-worker, Jianhui, brought back from China for our family. Wow!!! It is so beautiful, the pictures really do not do it justice. The amazing part is the intricate details are all cut out by hand. I was in awe of its beauty and fine craftsmanship. It is big too, 2' x 4'!

Now, we need to decide how we will mount and frame it. If anyone has a suggestion, we would greatly appreciate it, as we would like to preserve and display this gorgeous paper cutting. The story depicted is a famous folktale about 12 daughters (we think, although we couldn't locate any information about the story on the internet). Hmmm....maybe we will keep going with more adoptions to add to our daughter count...We'd only need 9 more....:0) Mike would definately need another job or two to keep up with all the shoe shopping!

Thank you Jianhui for such a special gift, we will cherish it always!!!!
