What do you do with that old fish tank that has been hidden in the corner of the basement forever? You turn it into a terrarium to display your collection of hand wood carved fish decoys!
Fish decoy carving is an area of whittling that is both easy, expressive, and creative. The lid from your cat food can or leather scraps from an old purse can become the fins of your fish. Copper wire can be made into the whiskers of a cat fish decoy, imitation fishing hooks, or hanging loops.
Coloring options are unlimited. Bright acrylic craft paints color the body of your fish. Now you can splatter it with white dots, dip the tip of a pencil into your color for big dots, or use the very edge of a shader brush to make ragged lines.
