davestanton Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hi guys. I was chatting with my mother the other day and she had this small pencil box beside her chair and she smiled when I asked her about it and she told me that her grandfather made it for her when she was 4. So I just made one for my 4 year old granddaughter but from a dead tree in my back yard. Have a look here if you want to. https://youtu.be/SinDV07Pl1k and the second episode here https://youtu.be/KhpSEahi9ms 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
