Welcome to Judy's Artwork Howto. Illustrated in this section are some
fun to make wood craft projects.
These are simple wood projects, and great kid crafts. Some have a number of
steps in the construction, but each is simple.
In this section of my craft website you'll find many types of wood crafts,
from a wishing well to a dollhouse to dollhouse furniture, and even how to
make your own wood craft doll.
The miniature wishing well craft is the most detailed, but if you move step
at a time, you'll easily end up with a fine wood craft wishing well.
For my wood crafts, I use general wood products like balsa wood panels,
dowels, chenille, glue (I like Aleene's Tacky glue), craft foam board, and wood
shape assortments. If you enjoy wood crafts and have never purchased a few wood
shape assortments, I urge you to do so.
Within the assortments you'll find all manner of wood shapes cut from thin
sheets. Things like flower petals, circles, polygons, heart shapes, etc.
Whenever I get an idea, I sift through the shapes to get further inspiration,
and it works every time. If I need to make tail feathers, feet, table tops, or
all manner of things, there's usually something in the assortments that will
serve nicely for at least some of my project.
I also use wood blocks and wooden balls of all sizes. It's often handy to
use wood balls that have center holes, but if you have a drill or dremel tool
you can put holes in balls that don't have them.
