Default Valentine's Day
I'm new here, so be gentle! I did the small hearts from last years WCI and they were a big hit. Does anyone have any other good ideas for Valentine's Day? Thanks!

I just finished two interlocking hearts. But I'll warn ya, (something that no one told me about) Use a rather thick piece of wood. I used a 3/4 inch thick one, and the hearts were very thin and difficult to carve without breaking. Tom H

How about laminating a few different woods together and carving hearts out of them for necklaces or key chains?
