Vintage 1920's doll I repaired and dressed in my garb remnants. When I got her she had no nose or clothes! I made all except the chalice. Fun project. Now I have a mini me!

She looks just like you! Post a picture of your evil twin's doll likeness too. You wouldn't want her to get jealous!

My latest wire wrapped crystals! They are magical!
Now someone else post some creations, Please?
I really like those crystal necklaces, Bonnie! I love the twisted, chaotic wire.
They look to be full of magic!
Thank you, Tim! I wear them every day. I think they do have magick! Plus they are pretty too and fun to create! I enjoy making them!
Those are beautiful, Bonnie!! Wire wrapping is so magical!
Thanks Trill! Magick was used to make them!
Nice to see the Museum has been rebuilt, It may take me a little while to put together all the pics that I had up in the old one, Huzzah to new beginnings!

my new pet Gorbash guarding one of my staffs...
Huzzah! Good to see you back here! Cute Gorbash!
He looks like he should be a permanent fixture on that staff!
He is too flighty to be attatched to anything for very long.... ;D
My latest project, its been a long while since I finished one. I have yet to decide what kind of finish to put on it....

1 free beer to the first person who recognises these symbols ;)
That is wonderous! So good to see a posting here!
I love your new staff!
The symbols are faces. I know nothing else.
Indeed they are faces, totems of great power.... Its my first staff using dragon tears, and I think that it came out pretty good, I may use them more often..
it is beautiful! Very lovely job! I like the dragon tears!
I would keep the finish light.
I will be bringing new staffs to Scarby- but ones I had at TRF.
I have been working on wonderful magical new wands and staffs! I have 2 new staffs and one still in the works. Pictures- when I get my computer nargles sorted out- or see me at TRF! It feels good to be creating again!!!
The third staff is still underway- but nearly done. Lots of crystals on it! They are at Authentic Wardrobe at TRF. Next to Angell swords!
I need to blow all the dust off my workshop, and start on a new staff soon!

Images of my new horseless carrige, my leach has advised me to quit traveling so much by flying carpet and get some exercize...
Tremayne has come along for the ride as well as work out, on occasion.
Very cool Alphonse! Looks like a fun way for a wizard to get around! Thanks for the pictures!
Indeed, when we ride around Tremayne's block we draw the attention of all the kids, some the braver ones even join us for rides. It is an excellant work out,lol I can still feel it from the weekend. Being a wizard, you can imagine that I have some ideas of modifications I intend to make to it as soon as I can get it to a black smith and present my suggestions. The stearing needs some attention and I may add a canvass sun shade as well...
Sounds like fun! I can see how you would be popular with the kids! Wizards usually are!
Spammer removius! POOF!!!
My daughter is turning 11 - as you all know, an age of great importance in the Harry Potter universe. I decided to make her a wand. I whittled the wood, sanded it and stained it. I also made one for the youngest, so he wouldn't be too jealous. I got a couple of trading card storage boxes for free from a local sports card store, painted them black, then (with my wife's help) installed fabric-covered foam cushions, complete with wand-shaped cutouts. My mother-in-law did the lettering for labels made from placecards. Here's the finished products:

Ends of both boxes.

Ian's wand - aspen wood with a core of dragon heartstring, 7-1/2 inches, rigid.
Those are awesome Dustin! I would have loved my own Magic Wand as a youngster. I used to disconnect the long handle from Dad's shop push broom, and that would suffice as my Wizard's staff.
So much fun in this thread...
That is a wondrous wand Dustin! And I love the box too.!11 is the perfect age for a wand. Hand made ones are the best. Alas. I wish I knew how to post pitctures here. I have many wands and staffs for sale- you can see them at Sherwood Forest faire.
