A new craft for me!

It’s hubby’s 70th birthday on Monday but no party however I have done some things to make it a special day. On Tuesday it’s our 47th wedding anniversary! No meal out but we can get takeaways now so we’ll see! Today I made this for him but Phoebes tail is only a thin twig and fragile so I gave it to him today so it could be safely placed on the mantelpiece! I even sawed the piece of wood (not very easily I might add as I was doing it wrong but I managed!). I also made a base.....might take this up as a profession for about £5 an hour?!?!
