NCTC Open House
This is IT!!
I feel so fortunate to have won this lovely wood bald eagle...handmade from 92 pieces of wood by Lolly's husband Jack....the wings and body are made of Walnut, the tail and head of soft Maple and Red Oak for the beak and feet. Jack didn't stain any of the wood, it is all naturally colored. The small picture doesn't do it justice, click on it to see it larger...it is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much Jack Ellis for making this for our raffle! And thanks to Lolly and Jack for a 'well traveled' eagle :)

Paula how you placed the beautiful eagle Jack made for the picture is just absolutely gorgeous. The eagle itself is beautiful and the wood colorings are exquisite. This eagle went to the perfect person.

Jack your hands are a working craft from God. Lolly thank you for helping to pack it safely and to let it travel during your 2010 journey.
