Default "Irish" Eyes
Hi Susan,

I tried doing the eyes the way you showed us and I wanted to show you the results I got on my Green Man Toothpick holder. Thank you so much for sharing that technique and as I do it more often I'm sure I'll get better at it. Cheers

Thanks Susan. Your instructions were a great help! I can see where I need to make changes so my next one will hopefully incorporate those changes.

Susan, where can I find your online tutorial for the greenman/woodspirit? I just ordered the "Woodspirits and Greenmen" book, is that yours?

Hi LInd,

Go to pur home page at www.carvingpatterns.com . You will see our dark brown logo with the flying duck. Scroll down just a bit and you will see a white table with five little barns in the middle. To the right of the barns you will see Free Online Tutorials ... click there. That takes you down the page to our tutorial listing and the Wood Spirit pages are one of the many projects on our site.

Susan
