You will need to take your time with this project as there is some sanding and staining involved, however take it as an opportunity to tailor the piece to suit your own taste. If you don’t want to spend too much time on it, we think it would also look great with a good quality raw piece of wood. Read through the instructions in the link below, find a piece of timber that you really love, and give it a go!
Note: the sanding and carving will be quicker and smoother with a soft piece of wood.
