Great pictures, Emily!!

If you ever dye the softer woods, like balsa wood, I'd buy some parts/toys. My little guys can only chew through the soft woods and balsa is their favorite - I currently don't have the time to dye my own and I make toys using the undyed balsa but I'm sure they would love to have it colored lol. I'll be interested in seeing some of the smaller toys you make for Artemis.

Good work. you do a nice job too. So I guess that rubbing alcohol is safe. I never knew that! You'll have to take pictures of the completed product so we can all see your fine work.
