orangeman Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 The Buffalo pattern appeared in the Fox Publishing "Animals" book by Judy Peterson. It just would not sell at shows until I added a plastic eyeball and a genuine Buffalo nickel. Bingo! Phantom Scroller, Lucky2, leshko and 2 others 5 Quote
Phantom Scroller Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Surprising what people look for in a wooden animal. Good work. Roly Quote
Gordster Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Very nice,the eye helps a bit. You just never know what they want. If it's big they want small,if it's Red they want blue...just have to keep trying To please them lol. Quote
meflick Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Whatever works right?!?!? I think I would have preferred it without the googly eyes though! Nice job on the project and figuring out what would sell for you! Thanks for sharing. Quote
Dave Monk Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Nice Job! I defineatly agree that you never know what will sell. I have had a couple things that I have showed a dozen times and then sell two at the same time. dave Quote
rjR Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 I like the buffalo well. I do think just a drilled hole of about that size for an eye would look even better. Try one and see if you like it that way. Do what they are willing to buy though! Quote

Good for you ...I made 25 mom's day projects and at the last minute i seen a drill hole that was not supposed to be there. Quick thinking i put a cat eye marble over it glued Do you know that was the first one to sell .I asked why and she said because it was different than all the others.I really like your project. Quote
