Custom Items

Coming soon photos of our newest arrowhead clocks.

Mountain Goat out of Wenge, Bighorn Sheep(Buck) out of Jatoba, Bear out of Mahogany, and Wolf out of Mahogany. As in an earlier post the Mountain Goat & Bighorn Sheep(Buck) are for my brother. The wolf may already be sold to a previous customer, the bear will be getting listed in our shop. Next will be an owl, eagle, and linx. My husband enjoys making these arrowhead clocks. I've been having a hard time getting my finishes to look right on some of them but won't quit until I do, somewhat of a perfectionist when it comes to crafting!!


Until Next Time!
Have a Great Weekend!

Etsy is very slow today, needed to get away from there! Sold a set of seahorses. Now need to finish up items David has made. He scrolled a Mountaim Goat Arrowhead Clock out of Wenge and a Bighorn Sheep(Buck) Arrowhead Clock out of Jatoba. Beautiful exotic woods but very hard to work with. Ended up breaking 3 drill bits while drilling into the Jatoba. These are for my brother. They will definately be the last ones we do, out of those two woods. I still have to get them stained and sealed. He finished a Wolf Arrowhead Clock also, it is stained but not sealed. I should be finishing them all instead of being on the comp but having a hard time with the odors so taking a break! He is working on a Bear one next, scrolling on it for about an hour after he gets home from work. Will be posting the photos of them when finished.

I really thought the Bighorn Sheep(Buck) was my favorite, but after seeing the Wolf, I'm not so sure now!

More later!
