There are so many ideas for the welcome bears that I have been making. They come in many different sizes. I make the smaller ones from 1" to 2" thick rough cut pine. They come in sizes from 12" tall to 4 ' tall including the base. They are finished several different ways: some are burnt to get different colors and some are stained. Welcome signs for smaller bears are made from poplar and hand painted with acrylics and the welcome signs for larger bears are made from 3/4" pine and then finished with stain and letters are hand painted with acrylics then entire piece is finished with a clear protective finish so it can be used indoors or out. Here are just a few to give you a idea of the different effects of different finishes. The ones in photo all have a block of cherry for a base which includes bark for rich texture and also the grain of the wood is exposed to show the nice grain pattern within a cherry tree or log. From left to right the first taller bear has been burnt for color, this bear measures 18" high with the base included. The bear is 5 3/4" wide. The second on left gets his color from applying a hand rubbed finish of oak and he measures 15" high including base and the bear made from 2" thick wood. 3rd bear in from left has a hand rubbed finish of walnut stain and is 13 1/4" tall and also made from 2" wood. Tall bear on the right is again burned for his rich color and he is 14 3/4" high including base. I will be consistently sharing different bears on a regular basis. I have many styles and designs and I am always working on one almost always along with other items I make. If you are interested in ordering one of the bears shown in this picture or you want one a little different you can go to HTTP://WWW.BACYARDWOODDESIGNS.COM Many different bears available for your rustic Adirondack décor, or if you just like to decorate with bears. They sure do give a warm feeling to any room, they look great in a window or sitting in the flower bed. I am sure you have a area where one of these little bears would look great.

Whats New At Backyard Wood Designs?
A new website has been created. It is updated and new items are added on a regular basis. I would like to take a moment to invite you to take a look.
This site allows you to purchase items that I make and offer for sale at different craft fairs I attend during the year. There are several options available to order items custom made with your own preferences based on a different kind of wood that you might prefer or even an item just a little different than what you see. Many more new items to come soon!
If you have any questions in regards to an items availability either fill one of the forms available or just send a quick email.
I would like to thank all of the people that made purchases from Backyard Wood Designs in 2012!
I am so excited about 2013! I will be adding a variety of unique new handmade products not previously offered.
I will be posting from time to time about changes and new items we will be offering in 2013!
For those of you that live within driving distance of my shop can avoid shipping cost by making arrangements to pick up your order right from the shop, or at one of the craft fairs I will be attending.
I will be posting all public events that I will be attending.
