Popular Post jimmyG Posted February 15 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 15 Another SG pattern finished... Didn't want to add any wood to the back for a hanger and take away from the clean lines. Couldn't be free standing since it was front heavy. So, I glued black felt to the back (Glue stick) found the easel back of an old picture frame, cut it to fit the back and used double stick tape to mount it. Not unique or high tech but it is what it is... barb.j.enders, Dave Monk, Dak0ta52 and 10 others 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keefie Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 beautiful work, looks great and very nicely cut too. I also like your idea of using black felt for a backer. jimmyG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 You nailed it! I've cut that one also and used a green piece of felt as a backer for contrast. jimmyG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the green option in SG's pattern posting but couldn't decide on a color. I had different color construction paper but it wasn't vivid enough. I ended up just using my go to rigid black felt. Should have spent more time cleaning up those inside corners of the honeycomb which took some time to cut using 3/4" basswood. This design had so many different possibilities to try out. One day I'm going to learn how to use resins. I had this vision of filling the honeycomb with yellow resin and amber in the bee's interior cut outs. So many different things to learn with so little time.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
