Just goofing around
« on: July 13, 2013, 08:05:23 PM »
I usually don't post stuff what I make, but I had such a good time making this and I recieved so many nice comments about it that I decided to post a link to the contemporary makers site for you to see. Hope you all enjoy it.

Thanks to all of you for the kind words, I really appreciate it.
Tim, just because you didn't think of it don't mean you can't make some, throw your own twist into it and post some pics... There are many ways to skin a cat...
