Waldorf Barn
Waldorf Style Barn
Our son has been going to a Waldorf School since he was 6 months old. Every year we put on a large fundraiser and one year I made this barn for the auction. It’s made out of recycled redwood fencing and some scrap maple I had in my shop. The knitted animals were made by my wife (the wooden ones were not from me).
Hand Carved Rabbit
I carved this for my German born wife, because my nickname for her is “Hase” which means Hare (rabbit) in German. It’s carved from a thick piece of bark I found on my brother’s property up in the Sierra Nevada foothills.
