With just a sharp knife, a little practice, and the tiniest block of wood, anyone can make a charming carving in less than an hour. Led by an award-winning carver and artist, this manual takes readers through the basics, demonstrating how to carve root vegetables in order to minimize the danger of accidents; readers will create a simple turnip bear or a carrot mouse. As confidence builds, readers graduate to wood, and work through step-by-step instructions accompanied by photographs, enjoying increasingly polished results as they refine their technique. It includes easy-to-use templates and sources for tools and materials, readers will learn how to sand, paint, and decorate their tiny carvings, eventually creating a fox, an owl, a horse, a hen, and even a forest or farmyard setting for their miniature menagerie.","brand":"Chicago Review Press, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47056974479600,"sku":"9781613744963","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781613744963_p0.jpg?v=1763845390","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781613744963","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
