Having always felt like a square peg in a round hole, I do things a bit differently. I really liked the Maori pendant in WCI and finally came up with this version to satisfy my squareness. Hope you enjoy it. It is made from Red heart wood. Wanda

Thanks for the comments, Jody B, Floyd and Ron T. Ron T. That is the natural color of the wood. All I did was put a clear coat varnish on it. It is rather orangey while working it but when the varnish goes on it is red and my favorite color. Wanda

Well, that puts a different twist on it! LOL..well done Wanda, aren't they fun to do? Funny thing is, if you tell folk you started with a circle or rectangle of wood then had the devil of a time twisting it into shape, a lot will nod wisely and say "I just bet you would" <grin> Regards John
