Wildlife Series

One of my favorite things is looking at wildlife. Fall is one of my favorite seasons because I get to see some beautiful wildlife in my part of the world. I wanted a way to have the beauty of the wildlife that we see during the year a part of my home. So I designed these silhouettes on my CNC program. We use a bit in the shape of a V to carve out the details on the wood and then I stained the whole thing black. After the stain dried, I ran them through the sander to reveal the wood again, leaving only the deepest carved spots still black. Then I finished them with a clear, low VOC top coat. To help with hanging them on the wall, I added a keyhole pattern on the back.

I think they turned out pretty cool! What do you think? We decided to add them to our Etsy shop.
