Popular Post barb.j.enders Posted October 12 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 12 (edited) Got a couple more finished. The mouse is a Janette Square design. Woods used Walnut, Wenge, Aspen and Spanish Cedar. The snowglobe was designed by Lori Jenks. Woods used Maple, Cherry, Poplar, Aspen, Elm. I ended up taking off the "glitter", couldn't get it to stick on. Third photo is the final of the snowglobe. I used a paint pen to put on the silver dots. Both were very quick and easy patterns.

Wat wood did you use for the snow on the Christmas tree? Cool It actually isn't wood. It is broken bits of larger beads/crystals. I was going for a shiny "glitter" look. I tried spraying shellac on top, but they didn't stick. Then I sprayed my glue on top but it didn't dry clear. It was kinda fuzzy. I may try an idea my neighbour had - spray hairspray!

Gonzo Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 Awesome job on the mouse. Christmas tree also. I don’t recall seeing the mouse in the magazine. I’ll have to go back and take a look at it. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomanydogs Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 (edited) Hi Barb, I really like the intarsia pieces you’ve been making. To have the glitter stick I wonder if Mod Podge would work I believe it dries clear or even Paint Medium I’m sure that also dries clear. I’ve never tried it but Mod Podge and Paint Medium have glue in them. Edited October 13 by Tomanydogs barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankEV Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 Both very nice. Clear Kryon glitter blast works good to hold glitter in place and adds brilliants. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Issue 97, Winter 2024 literally just came out and with Barb in Canada, she may not have her’s yet (I got mine end of last week). The issue with Janette Square’s intarsia pattern of the mouse on the leaf was in the prior one, Issue 96, Fall 2024 on page 55. The article is entitled “Riding the Wind.” Barb, you did excellent work on all your projects. I have finally got my saws accessible and I will have to try some pieces soon. Intarsia may have to wait a bit though until I get my skill set back up to speed. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure it won't take you very long to get back up to speed. Looking forward to seeing your work again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wichman Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 One additional correction; the design was cut by Janet, but designed by Lucille Crabtree. Janette stated that Lucille entrusted her pattern collection to her (Janette) so that it would continue to be available for years to come. barb.j.enders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I posted, I just went to the magazines article index and saw Janette's name there. Wichman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
