I took one of the branches from the wood pile and started a new project today. I have wanted to try to make a honey dipper!
The Magnolia wood is so light and pretty!
I had it shaped in no time and began the pleasurable part
which is the shaping!
And it went well until it didn't! All part of the game....
I didn't want to waste the beginning 'bulge' and turned it into a Christmas tree light! I hope to make a lot of these so the kids can paint them as ornaments for their trees!
My second attempt went much better but I used a different wood-this is Black Walnut. I think it will work out just fine. I have already started a second Magnolia branch one-here's hoping!

I just had fun with a bit of drawing! lol
A honey dipper is a great idea...as are the wodden lights for the kids to paint. Very creative!
ReplyDeleteThat dipper is a brilliant idea! Is it really frustrating for you when things go wrong or do you just consider it a learning experience? A great idea to turn it into a lightbulb!
ReplyDeleteLove your knitted pumpkins and your drawing too.
Blessings and hugs,

Your creative mind is making some great items. I like both the honey dipper and your drawing.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of the first one!
ReplyDeleteYour dipper is just amazing!
ReplyDeleteI need that connection under my sink right now. I don't know why I didn't think of that. I did a puzzle.
