Honey Bees

     I have a customer who raises honey bees and was looking for a few folkart bees.

     I headed upstairs to Grandma's Attic 
( http://backroadfolkart.blogspot.ca/2013/03/grandmas-attic.html ) above my Studio and put together these old wooden fishing buoys for the bodies and two old fan blades for the wings.

    The fisherman used wood-turning lathes to turn out these buoys made from Island cedar, then they'd tar them to waterpr0of them.
