    Scrap Bin Project - Child's Horse Head Piggy Bank

    New grandson needs to get a jump on his college savings. A scrap of cherry cut out bandsaw-box style with some resaw scraps leftover from another project and a cork from an old spice jar.

    Very clever Glenn! Is there a slot to insert a coin?

    It's on the horse's forehead...hard to see in the second photo, but there.

    An heirloom for sure. Alas my own imagination fails to see such satisfying opportunities. I see the grain eye ,but to my eye he needs a real eye; you have a warm color and cool color ,think that warm color would work and unite the piece. The horse ,of course, needs for them to be 'equine' distant.

    Thanks guys. Yes, I should have mentioned the slot is at the back of the ear where it meets the head

    What a great concept and execution. Congrats on the new grandchild!
    Rustic? Well, no. That was not my intention!
