I love the look of it~ it almost looks like you carved her from a stone instead of elm. Very rustic, almost ancient feel to it! Like a toy from ancient times

I hope so.Β An old martial arts teacher used to always say that when something was hurting, dislocated, sore to "make it sweat", if it was broken, set it first, then "make it sweat".Β Usually by rubbing ointment on it, tiger balm, icy hot, whatever you have, then wrapping it in plastic wrap then in towels or ace bandage and letting it sweat for a night.Β Just a thought.Β Hope you feel better soon.

It's nerve stuff rather than a brake and it;s been an issue for nearly 2 years

nice, love to see it.Β I would like to make my daughter a Viking dress, I have old original glass beads that would look great on a dress and old pure silver coins that I could hammer out and engrave. She's a bit of a princess though, don't know if I can talk her into it.

Tell her shell be a viking princess ^^

HAHAHHAHAHAAHAA, what kind of Tiara does that get you?Β Maybe I'll make her one of wolf's teeth and silver.

Hmm I'm sure you could invent one XD Oh oh show her princess mononoke and tell her she can be that kind of princess XD

Oh Yeah, we know Princess Mononoke, not her type, though.Β I'll work them in some how.

Shame... Hmm tell her vikings are like anna and elsa's grandparents XD

hahahahahhahaaaa, that's funny. Have you ever seen a pink under dress with a purple strap dress on top? Β That's probably the only way I'll get her close to Viking.

Hmm I haven't but pink dies can be made more easily than red so no reason not to have one XD

I'll run it past her and draw one up, you're an inspiration.
