Thats pretty amazing, can you imagine how long it must have taken to do that? I don't think I would have the patience, hmm, or the skill. Teh things people think of, lol.
ReplyDeleteWow! What can you say???
ReplyDeleteFor the past month in work I haven't had time to sharpen my pencil let alone carve it!
I wonder what you use to carve something so small and intricate?

PS I'm so glad you are enjoying the small glimpses of Australia on my blog.
Helsie - I came across the blog with the pencil sculpture mentioned in a French magazine called Marie Claire Idees which I get when I can find it as it is full of lovely crafty ideas. I am a lurker and it occasionally has some interesting ideas as you can see! Yes I do enjoy your little glimpses of your home country and thanks for changing my mind!!
