    Another Saami inspired needle case

    This is an updated version of my Saami Inspired needle case. I used bamboo instead of reindeer bone. The reindeer herds here are quite rare. The scrimshaw symbols are meaningless. It was just my effort to look Saami-ish. Enjoy [/url]image by charlz9mm, on Flickr[/IMG]

    Wood Spoon - Herb Scoop

    This is more of an herb scoop. The wood is Basswood (Tilia americana). I only used hand tools. I will do a little more sanding and then seal. The motif is random. I do not have a cultural point of reference since I live in the US. Pictish, Sammi, Celtic, Hobbit??? Who knows. [/url]photo...
