[Woodcarver]snake wood - Maura chat

[Merrilee Johnson]

Those are great!  I have a yuck feeling about snakes and can't imagine why 
anyone would want to have anything to do with them but you are doing great!  
Is the snake wiggling back and forth or is it twisted around - I guess I 
should know that but....  The wood is beautiful even all by itself!    Your 
plaque (?) is also beautiful.  I couldn't decide what the first word was but 
all the curly-cues are super.  Thanks for sharing!

         I am making 3 sets, 6  sticks. Snakewood is one of the rarest, most
expensive woods in the  world, figured snakewood even rarer.
