She just got into ballet so i thought it would be cool to make her her own ballet bar that she can practice on.
I used central vac tubing and PVC Tees and elbows to make this.

I hope she likes it or else ill have a pink garage floor for nothing lol
Also heres a shot of the amazing cake my wife made for her birthday its a Rapunzel cake based off the Disney movie.

Very nice. My father made a ballet barre for my daughter about 20 years ago and she still has it in her room. I'm sure she'll treasure it.

That's cool bro! Your wife did a great job on that cake too! Like you said yesterday on the porch over a beer, "Family is important and its important to create those memories that last." Stands so true my friend. Have a great day and enjoy the par-tay lol

That's great. I also have a niece that I would do anything for. I taught her to drive last year.

Smokey, your niece will always remember these gifts, and that in itself is a gift to you.

Even if she doesn't figure out the bar, she can always look at your pink garage floor and remember you handmade a gift for her!
