Easter quiver

<< < (2/2)

M2A:
Thanks fellas.

DC- after I was finishing up the thought did come to me about making it similar to the one pictured below with using one of those purple dyed hides :D.....However after I see how the colors hold up I would like to give it out to some youngster that may have an interest in archery(it would be better than the cardboard tube and duct tape I had as a kid), But they may not see it in my same humor 8)

Not exactly primitive, but a coat of shellac or clear spar varnish may help keep the colors from fading some!  Very nice work!

Wow that weave is excellent.  What is the quiver made from?

M2A:
Thanks guys!
Thank you for suggestion Hawkdancer, I do have a can of Deft on my bench and thought about it, but its more about seeing how they hold up, to know know what to expect if I use again.

Aznboi, the colorful quiver is made from materials I purchased from a basket making supply store. The stuff is rather cheap. You can use lots of locally sourced materials, like the weeping willow in the above pic.
