  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Ok,
So I enjoy working with leather...making tool bags and things that people enjoy.

Now I seen that the shop I buy leather and tools at has some rabbit pelts.

I was thinking about taking some of this and making a couple of small children's sized journals...put a piece of a cat's collar on it and a label on the inside saying "Fluffy Thoughts"

Maybe even a small bell and name tag saying "Fluffy"


All this for my nieces for Christmas...
My wife says nooo

I'm thinking "What's the harm?"

Opinions and thoughts?

I'm with you... I don't see much harm.

If woman can do things like bake cookies, cakes, pies, casseroles etc. and give them out at various times e.g. for the holidays, to new neighbors moving in, to people grieving for lost relatives etc. There is no reason that a guy who likes to work with his hands can't do something similar.

did your wife say no because of the rabbit pelts?

rabbits are often pets for children
one of my sisters & one of husband's sisters each had a rabbit as a pet
