If you are looking for a great gift for a child, consider a wooden toy from a local craftsman Ron Hughes in Cardiff, phone 613 339-1172. I like the humour he builds into every rocking horse, buro, cow, bull, goat... I am trying to get him to make a rocking moose too. Below are pictures of two of his works: 
Rocking Mountain Goat
Close Up of the Mountian Goat
Here is Ron himself who points out that the rocking base can be removed if no longer used. Each piece can also be converted into a planter.  |
