Break out of the mold with this organic ornament<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

By Wayne Barton<\/em><\/p>\n

Chip-carve ornaments are usually based on geometric figures. However, I decided to branch out and make an ornament with a more positive image and organic style. You can display the ornament alone, attach it to the top of a box, or even carve several to decorate a mantel or door frame. In addition to this chip-carved ornament, try your hand at making your own carving knife handle<\/a> with a block of wood and a few materials and tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

Carving the Flower<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Transfer the pattern to the wood with graphite paper. I always advise transferring the pattern with graphite paper rather than gluing the pattern. This way you can see if you are removing or cracking away wood that isn\u2019t supposed to be removed.<\/p>\n

As you carve the flower, hold the blade at approximately a 65\u00b0 angle to the wood. When making tight or small curved cuts, raise the angled blade up so it\u2019s more on its tip, reducing the amount of metal in the wood. Don’t cut deeper than necessary to remove the chips. Keep the \u201cvein\u201d lines narrow so they don\u2019t overpower the carving. If desired, add a scalloped border on the back side of the ornament.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

Finishing the Flower<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Spray both sides of the ornament with three coats of polyurethane, such as Minwax. If desired, paint the outer edge and add a message on the back. Apply a light brown finishing wax, such as Briwax, to both sides of the ornament to emphasize the carved areas while preserving a natural appearance.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
