Default :Little Boot:
Didnt want to carve alot this morning seeing I had some errands and few honey do's to get done so I had this little block of cedar and carved a little boot. Will stain it lightly and add some boot laces.

I pick up carved shoes and boots when I find them in antq shops or junk stores plus Ive carved my wife four different shoes/boots.Its 1.1/16 X 2 inches.

Hope she likes this one and your thoughts are welcome also.

Thanks,Forrest

Dwayne,Annnnnnnnnn She lets me carve them cause to her being raised in the mtns,I bought her 1st pair of shoes,she use to go bare footed all the time,even in the winter! Guess thats why she likes the shoes and boots!! LOL

I thank you for ckn it out plus your neat thoughts! Made me smile!

Think I will carve her next a new pair of flip-flops! cause its cold and that little strap between her toes I will line with woodchuck fur to keep her toes warmer!! Im just too good to her..............like right now,I have to get off here and fix supper!!! Boy Im home bent but like it.

Thanks again,Forrest

I'm surprised that with the temperature what it is you've got enough feelin' in them fingers of yours to carve something that small! Nice work Forrest! I just threw away an old pair of sneakers. Want me to mail you the laces? Ha! Ha!
