It's always a joy to make a THANK YOU give for some friends - Reindeer & Sleigh
It's always a joy to make a THANK YOU give for some friends - Reindeer & Sleigh
Over the year I've received support, encouragement and offcuts from a couple of friends,
so with Christmas coming it was time to make a gift for them.
Of course Papa Smurf & Handy Smurf were excited to help.
The sleigh is recycled Merbau boards and American Oak offcuts.
Approx 12" [300mm] long, 5.5" [140mm] wide and 8" [200mm] high
And the reindeer is Cypress Pine flooring offcuts.
Note the red Bloodwood nose and the black Starbond CA glue eye.
The finish is my homemade wipe-on-poly.
Have a blessed & safe Christmas to one and all as you celebrate with family & friends, remembering the "Reason for the Season".
