I've made "goose guns" in the past and thought it's time to make a "moose gun".
This moose gun is made from an old antique musket and antique deer antlers (purchased at Auction sale) - I carved up the deer antlers to suite the moose.
This item is for sale.

This blog changed from a daily blog to a blog to celebrate the folk art of Kerras Jeffery, as well as his reproduction furniture and other projects. His studio & shop closed in 2017 following his passing.

Shadow Box: The Hunt Up River
I'm happy the way this shadow box turned out! I call it, "The hunt up river". Its measures 32"w by 21" by 3" deep.
The dogs tongue is a nail i flatened.
I used dinner forks for the moose antlers. Also the hunter's arm is a fork covered with body fill.
The crane is roosting on a real rock .
The tail of the beaver is off a end of a spoon.

Bill's Cat Catching
This is my latest piece of folk art which i call, "Bill's cat catching".
I started with an old steel paddle car which dates back from the 1950's. The car is 51" long 28" x high 18 x wide.
Bill's body is made from a old sap bucket. The rim of his hat is off a pot lid. His mustache is made of two coat hooks . His goatee is a drawer-pull one end of it.
The horns on the hood are made from a dowel and two coat hooks.
Bill, the dog and cat bodies are all made of carved from cedar wood.

Stepback Cupboards
I picked up these three dressers a couple of weeks ago and made them in to stepbacks. I got the drawers sliding good on each cabinet.
These cabinets would be good in a kitchen, dining room, or in the bathroom for towels.
