My first veneer attempt.
Christmas Approaching, Sister wanted an iPod. So I got her one… out of wood. She was ecstatic for a split second. Then gave her the real iPod. She showed her friends, and they kept pressing buttons asking, “Have you charged it yet?”
I only had a few days before Christmas before I thought of this idea, so had little time to make it. Even took the vacuum bag to work.
Have any of you made a gag gift wooden or not?
