Description
As many of you know, my dad does Indian Crafts. My sister (lunchlady here on Rendo) and I take allot of pictures of his work for him. The other day he sent this box top down for me to shoot some pic's of. Now mind you this is only the very top of a birch bark box...it will look like a trunk (treasure chest) shape when it is completed. I've included the "side up" and "side down" so you can see the pointy ends of the porcupine quills before he's trimmed them off and attaches it to the rest of the box. One other thing to remember, he's sewn each and every one of these quills into this bark himself with an Awl, tweezers, and bare hands. Thanks for the clicks, comments, and fav's on my previous post.
