Minature Vase (updated with picture with flowers)
« on: March 18, 2013, 12:32:30 pm »
While having my morning cup of coffee this morning I cut this minature flower vase from a scrap piece of wood.  Now I have to carve some flowers for it.  For that I'll be using the wooden handle off of one of those little foam paint brushes to carve the flowers and leaves.

Thanks for Lookin'

Nice work though.   :D

Nice. Do you plan to drill it out to take the stems?

Pete,
Steve Good has a Youtube video how to make the flowers.  It's not as easy as the video looks thats for sure!  I'm going to redo them first chance I get.
