Working With Wood Books

OK, I thought I had Shawn Cipa pegged as "the weird guy." No offense, but the gargoyles, wizards, and dragons and such just aren't my thing...

But that's when he shocks me with this outstanding Nativity instruciton book! If you would like to make your own hand-carved 15-piece wooden folk art Nativity manger scene, this is the book to get.

You are started off with full-color step by step carving demonstrations for the three central figures (Joseph, Mary, and the baby Jesus). Once you're set with those, the additional 11 figures are presented in front and side view patterns.

Each project comes with full material lists and paint schemes to provide just the right touch. You even get a stable!

This book will help you create a family heirloom that will inspire others for years to come.
