Are you ready to make a realistic looking miniature craft wishing well? If
so, just follow the steps on this sequence of pages and you'll end up with
a fine miniature wishing well like that shown in the inset of the image
below.
There are quite a few steps in the construction of this balsa wood craft,
but taken one at a time they are easy to complete. To make things even easier,
I've coupled each step with a color image that fully illustrates what you
should do.
If you want a child to make this craft project, just help with the cutting
of balsa wood pieces, and the rest is easy for a child to complete.
So if you're ready, let's get crafting!

As to glue, I recommend Aleene's Tacky glue. It dries quickly, and holds
wood pieces together securely.
