My first attempt at paper filigree, also known as quilling.

A tribute to Kookaburra's generosity in giving out stars and comments.

I thought it would be fun to create a bird which could move its wings and walk around (even though it was a bit tricky sometimes…)
If you wonder what the black strings are for, here's a full view of the puppet.
A few steps of the WIP.
And now… it's alive!

Made out of a 5x3x3 block of maple that was a piece of a rejected baseball bat blank. I love working with reclaimed and reused wood. The knobs are tiny scraps of walnut from another project that I chucked into the drill press and shaped with sandpaper. My fingertips are a wreck. :)

Finished with thinned semi-gloss varathane.

I was going to go with some more exotic wood accents but the design of this "armoire" called for simplicity, I think.

I wanted to show a shot of the back too, but there's a 2 picture rule.

{EDIT: Here's plans if anyone wants them: http://www3.telus.net/wood/Cracked%20Band%20Saw%20Box%20Instruction.htm I just scaled them down to the size needed for this contest.
