Finally got my lock and chain done!!!

[Cutting Cathy]

Well I have certainly been busy the last couple of weeks!! Not only did I get my ginger jar done but I finally finished my lock and chain!! It's made from cherry (I think it was so long ago I can't remember!!) and maple with a shellac finish. Unfortunately the chain was made from poplar so it looks pretty darn green!!! I was not happy with that. The lock was fun the chain was a challenge!!!

I will probably make a new chain from some butternut. This will be one of my entries for the fair this year. Thanks for looking!!

Very nice, Kathy. Love the lock and the key is delightful! Try to keep the chain out of the moss. <wink>

Your lock and chain came out very nice. You sure have been one busy lady.

They look great! I like the green chain it won't stay that color. The green goes brown over time. I guess you got the key issues sorted out.
