Wooden Wearables

That's Right! 

It's possible to carve you're own fancy bowties, cufflinks, hairclips, rings and brooches. Or you could save time and just buy them from Wooden Wearables.

Some may be surprised to learn the head wood carver at Wooden Wearables is an former Illustrator turned Chainsaw Carver. Actually, he is quite famous for his realistic human figures carved with a chainsaw.

Internationally renowned tree carver Simon O'Rourke may well have carved the world's first life size bobble head from a tree while participating in the Ridgway, PA Chainsaw Rendezvous.  Simon continues to carve human figures, as well as animals, from trees.
