Default BettyBoop.EyeGlasses Holder

My wife uses the reader glasses at times to read smaller print. Ive carved her a few of theses Eye Glass Holders before,comes in handy cause most of the times she can't find any of her 2000 pair of glasses.{lol} She likes Betty Boop.This will be a suprise for her this evening when she gets home,most days it me showing her this or that Ive carved.

This one is carved out bass wood,pin the carving on and slide your glasses in the ring below.

Hope you like it buttttttttt?? Can anyone help me find my GlaSseS?? Thanks for looking.

Forrest

Hey Forrest,
You're gonna have to crank up your oxygen this evening after Connie see's this new carving you did, she's gonna love her new Betty Boop eyeglasses holder, especially with that nice little note on the back. I hate to tell you this my friend, but I don't think that ring is big enough to hold 2000 pair of glasses. As always, you came up with another "Forrest Original", great job ole buddy.
Dan

Good show Forrest.
I agree with Dan Connie is apt to smother you with gratitude when she gets home this evening and sees that wonderful gift
