Default Carolina Wren Pin

Had alot to get done and shopping cause my children will be here tomorrow afternoon.
Saw this little scrap of bass wood in my wood junk pile and carved a wren on a log,will paint it when I can and make just a pin out of it.

I'll post pictures again when hes all painted with the pin on back. Theres so many things and different subject matters anyone can carve like this.Plus if you sell things,they will sell pretty good too.

Have a good wk end.

Forrest

Dang Forrest that's a right nice little wren! A little different in style to some of your previous creations, but I still think it's great! Ha! All joking aside, he IS a cute little guy and I'm anxious to see how he looks once you've painted him and glued on the pin... Enjoy your visit with your grandkids and the rest of your family as much as I'm sure they'll enjoy visiting with you and your wife. Again, continued good health and safe carving!
