A while ago, EJ and I bought a beautiful piano from a family we found in the classifieds that was moving and planning to buy a new piano. It was built in the 40s and although parts of it are pretty scratched up and there is a small crack in the soundboard, we got an amazing deal on it. Even though I plan on buying a brand new Yamaha some time in the next 10 years, I love my piano so much I don't know if I'll ever be willing to sell it (despite the fact that the owner of the Piano Gallery told me I could sell it for a lot of money and if we take really good care of it, it'll be worth even more in 10 years).
EJ is determined to restore the piano and make it look and sound even better than it already does. He read an entire thick book about piano restoration (which is amazing if you know my husband and know that reading is his least favorite thing to do, unless what he's reading has to do with cars or bikes). He loves to open the piano up and tell me all of his big plans, some of which he has already started to do. Every time I start to freak out and tell him he's going to destroy my beautiful piano, he makes me stop and tell him how good he is at fixing things (which he actually really is).
Ever since we got the piano, I've been begging EJ to let me teach him how to play and he's always told me he isn't interested. But last night, he actually told me he wants to learn some easy songs and he's willing to let me give him piano lessons.
I seriously think that a tear rolled down my face.
Whether you are a piano teacher, a piano tuner or if you restore old pianos, there are several piano-related promotional products you can print your company name on. A few of my favorites are the Piano Pencil, the Brass Piano Clock and the Baby Grand Piano Musical Alarm Clock.
