We Toons are a crafty bunch!  It’s not uncommon to see three or four of us sitting around the kitchen table, each working on some project or another, listening to music, talking about anything and everything, and laughing at all of the passive aggressive savagery that makes up the typical banter.  Their sense of humor, especially when they can feed off of each other, is a great way to spend an evening.

When the woodturning club started making wig stands, the girls all wanted to help.   Megan was first with a wigstand that received a special thank you note back from the woman who received it.  Then Alexa made one that got oohs and aahs from the club.  Megan went again with another using a wood burner that impressed even the most seasoned members.  Jenny offered one using recycled maps that the club thought was very creative.

Now Courtney’s jumped into the fray with the effort below.  While I’m sure there’s some part of Courtney (and all of them for that matter) that wants to help cancer patients, I’m convinced the other 99.9% is looking to outdo her sisters!  When she told me what she had in mind to do to the wigstand, I smiled and said, “that’ll be kinda cool”, but inside I didn’t think there was any way she could pull it off.  When she asked if she could borrow my foredom, I said yes, but thought, “she’s never going to be able to control that kind of power carving tool”.  When she showed me the final product, all I could do was look her in the eye and admit I was wrong.   This one’s really good, from the concept to the execution.
