    beads of courage pail (box)

    This is my contribution to the BOC project.Maple burl,6" to bottom of the trolls ft. 7" at it's widest. The troll was a after thought after i messed up carving a teddy bear. All C&C more that welcome.

    Nice one Steve. I know big kids that would love that one.
    The troll does not look like a plan "b" from over here!

    That is just Awesome Steve! The little troll is a perfect color match and definitely looks right at home. This is sure to be a big hit with it's new owner!

    Thanks again all. I'll most likely do at least one more box for these kids, as i think it's a great cause.

    I really like this... the whimsical bucket form combined with a troll to top it off! Really cool stuff Steve! Some kid out there is going to absolutely love it! Nice work!
