A few years ago, my husband and my son took up guitar. They have both gotten quite good and it's fun to hear them play together. So, when our dating anniversary (yep, we still celebrate that even after nearly 13 years of wedded bliss!) came around, I had the idea to make him a custom guitar pick.
Of course the first place I went to look was etsy. I found this shop
I ordered some 18 gauge aluminum picks and stamped "I Pick You" on it. Isn't that sweet?
I also made one for my son Aidan. Something I learned is that you can't put too much on the pick. Or at least, I couldn't...I tried to make one that said "I will worship" but ran out of room for my "ip"...not cool!
I think my hubby liked it. And now, for something you will like.

So many songs, but my fav. on a guitar is nora jones "don't know why"
and I already follow you!
I'd love the guitar pick disc made from 18 GAUGE BRASS QTY 5 and have them engraved, It would be so cool to find a 4 leaf clover as well but didn't find any there....
My favorite song at the moment is In Color by Jamey Johnson.
I already follow you!
I'd love an engraved guitar pick for my son....he would just go nuts!
I follow :)
I would also pick a pick for my husband. He is a musician and can never have too many. I pull picks out of the washing machine on a daily basis :)
At the risk of sounding lame, one of my current favs is "Misery". I actually love all the songs on the album...
Thanks for the great giveaway!

I'm excited about the washers and discs (love the hearts, too!)...I just got my stamping set and I'm ready to go!
I'm fond of Joy to the World (Three Dog Night). Great giveaway!
Neat shop! Haven't seen one like that yet. The washer stamping discs in 1 inch 20 gauge NICKEL SILVER look pretty promising.

My favourite song really depends on my mood, but I always come back to Beautiful Freak by Eels.
I love all the birds and animals, especially the peace birds.
