My nephew's first birthday is approaching within a few weeks. While I am here struggling on what to get the little fellow, my ingenious dad is building a freaking rocking horse! I have always admired my father for his impressive artistry skills and fine craftsmanship. I don't think there is anything this man isn't capable of doing!
I completely love his heartwarming gift and can not wait to see the finished product. <3

My dad made me one of those too. White horse, black mane, green and yellow saddle. Then he made all our furniture all Little House on the Prairie style. Now I have a fantastic love of power tools. Dads are great.

def worth the read - http://the-new-outlet.blogspot.com/
i'm sure you'll enjoy it and i got inspired to do research on the line after i saw a small snippet on the tees in the august 2009 issue of vogue paris. x.
wow.
looks pretty good.
Oh my god, that craftsmanship is amazing. It's easy to see from his preliminary etchings on the wood, how beautiful it will be...
And then BAM, a little wood stain, a lot of love and some gold paint... voila! MASTERPIECE.
What did you come up with? Very excited to see.
omg!! that is amazing!! he's so skilled
DUDE YOUR DAD HAS TALENT!!

O-M-G. When I first checked your post, I was thinking to myself..I wonder how he'll pull it off since it didnt look thick enough to support a seat, but the finish product is absolutely wonderful. I can see where you get your artistic abilities from ;)
wow! that is amazing & beautiful craftsmanship! it's great having a dad who's good with his hands. :)
i would certainly pay for an adult rocking horse! when you get around to making them contact me!
That is sooo sweet!
Hey that is awsome! Yor dad is very good with his hands. Thanks for stopping by, would you like to swap links?
