Hello! I collect witches. I am wondering/hoping has anyone carved, seen a carving, seen a pattern for any? I have a thing for the kitchen witches. I have carved several of my own and adore them. I am thinking of a relief carving maybe? I might have to bite the bullit and draw one.
I was looking at THOR's carvings she did with the tree's in three panels? How cool to maybe have a full moon behind the tree's with a sweet Witch flying across.
You know whats even cooler than the ideas I have?!?! Finally having a place where I can talk about these ideas! Thank you all for listening-I get almost embarrassed when I see all the threads I started. But I really love this forum!
I decided to make something for myself...WhOa!
So any witchy ideas are very welcome!

This makes me curious again...what does everyone else collect?

Hi Keoma.. you could carve a witch into your cookie presses for Holloween cookies.. may as well make her useful. *grin*

What do I collect?..... dustbunnies.

I've seen cloth patterns for kitchen witches... if you did a search on those maybe you will have something to look at to draw your own pattern? Drill hole for broom stick and maybe wrap raffia around the end for the broom bristles? Just trying to help here..

keoma,


there was an article in "chip chats" a good while back where a guy carved a witch in a releif style and made the hair out of small copper wire and then spray painted the hair, not sure what issue it was in though,

i like the witch cookie mold that would be kinda cool, also a jack o lantern cookie mold will be cool, and dont get me started with the christmas theme that is almost endless.
