Hairband Bracelet – Daniel D. Brown, 2018, Walnut & Cherry wood
I recently made this hairband bracelet for my wife so that she would look a bit more professional carrying around a hairband on her wrist. Cut with a scrollsaw.

Wooden Feather Earrings #5 – Cherry, Padauk, & Purpleheart
These earrings are hand-made, one-of-a-kind pieces made from cherry, padauk, and purpleheart woods. The colors are the natural colors of the wood (no stains or paints). These are finished with a food-safe mineral oil/beeswax mix.
This pair of earrings is available for purchase on the Laughing Mantis online shop.
The wood is initially cut to size and glued in the desired pattern. I then sketch out the design and cut it out with a scrollsaw. Finally comes a LOT of sanding by hand and then finishing with mineral oil/beeswax.
