My Very First Carving

[KylieJ]

Hi all...

I build decorative bird houses out of old barn wood and I can't seem to find any birds that aren't made out of mushrooms, so I decided to try to make my own. I know it's crude, but at least I have a better idea on how this carving thing works. Although this lil guy taught me a lot, he still needs some work. However, I need to make dinner first. Hmmmm....wonder if my hubby would notice sawdust in the chili? Nah...not with my cooking he won't!

Thanks for the advice everyone.

I have no advice to offer...just a compliment on the GREAT job you did on this little feller!! I hope my first finished carving comes out as good as this one did.

It is not crude....It is simple, clean-lined, delicate and adorable. Way to go!
