It Moose Be Love
« on: June 15, 2011, 04:42:33 pm »
OK folks just so you know I'm not all blow and no show here is my finished project.
Thanks Grampa Paul for the cool pattern you came through again. You Sir ARE A STAR!
This is my first real project meant for someone else. The backer is 1/4" Masonite with light gray primer sprayed with silver glitter paint which gives it a starry night effect and a clear finish of the wood
(no stain) It is common 1/4" plywood of only 3 ply's but was all I had to work with. I'm pretty pleased with it, but hope to do better in the future, might even get some of that fancy stuff to cut.  ;D
I'm waiting to see their faces when I give it to them. Beckie has always had this thing for Moose and has collected them since she was a young girl. So you can see the connection.

I know, it's because her head is turned so you can't see the camel nose.
Blame Grampa for that. LOL
I've never had moose venison but I've had Elk. YUM!
Thanks to all for the uplifting comments they are appreciated.
Glad you all liked it, You too Marion I appreciate your discerning eye.  ;D
Now if I can find a shirt that fits, that has buttons. LOL
