Default Minnie Mouse
about 6 inches tall, basswood, finished in acrylics and sprayed with polyurethane to protect. Finished in March for my grand-daughter's birthday. I had done Mickey back in September for the other grand-daughter's birthday.

Looks like they were fun to make! You're not just carving, you're making memories.

Thank you all. I love doing carvings that stay in the family. It gives me an opportunity to focus of the intended recipient as I do the piece.
