    Default Simple valentine project

    This was my first time adding any color to a project. A simple free pattern carved in walnut, then sanding sealer followed by paint, sanding, and stain/finish. Ya gotta love walnut.

    Nice, and I do love walnut and don't think I could force myself to put paint on such beautiful wood.

    I know, right? I felt dirty painting it - don't usually put color on anything, especially such a good-looking wood like that, but I'd been reading about it on here and decided to give it a whirl.

    Nice work. And thanks for posting the site. I went there and Immediately registered. I have d/l a lot of files from the gallery, but this is easier to see them.

    very nice piece-- it makes me wonder if you could carve in chocolate and fill in with white chocolate

    Seriously though, I'm sure that will go over better even than chocolate would (and last longer too)
