Item #2007-0008


This minor creation was very simple to make. It is a native american medicine wheel that I made for K out of a wood tray from Goodwill and rocks that K already had. We hang it on the wall and align it with a compass so that it matches the four directions.

This item was also a gift for Karin. The frame is a solid walnut frame that I got for free because it was really messed up - so I just sanded it to make it look more earthy. I got the driftwood while we were in Vermont for our civil union five years ago (8/29/03). I made her walk the shore of Lake Champlain with me carrying a trash bag while I picked up a bunch of driftwood. Unfortunately, when we moved to PA in 2004 I got rid of it - but man I wish I had moved those sticks with me! I could add them to my huge box of twigs!
