"Loons on the Lake"

September is just a few weeks away,  Those of you that have had time this summer to spend on the lake you're sure to have heard the sounds of the loons early in the morning.  That scene, that you find yourself waking too, is something that deserves its own carving to sit on your mantel during those cold winter months.

Celtic rosettes for a window trim 

This Hack of the Week was inspired by a set of four celtic rosettes and a starfish themed hack that Don Harding sent in.  

The celtic rosettes use models from the Celtic Frame No.1 and would look great around a window or door.  

The starfish panel uses a model from the new Panel No.1 - Flowers project and the starfish from the Under the Sea No.1 project.  It would look great as a rosette or as a bit of wall decor at your cottage or by the pool.   

Thanks Don for sharing and inspiring us!!!
