Description
This is wand no. 31, made for ~kudavari as a commission.It is 100% handcarved (including the vine and leaves) out of a birch dowel with flexcut whittling knives, sanded with 100, 300, and 600 grit sandpaper, painted with black acrylic and accented with silver leaf, and finished with a brush-on acrylic varnish. The celtic knot design and handle swirls were done with a woodburning tool. See more pictures here on my Facebook page: [link] [link] Length is 13 1/2".

Haha, I've made so many wands in the four years since I posted that comment that this wand's place in my top 5 has some serious challengers! But I still love your wand loads <3. It was a project that really pushed my carving skills at the time to the limit.Β

Thank you!! What does your OC's wand look like? Unfortunately, this wand was made as a commission for someone, so it's theirs...!

I wish I could!!!! It's just too expensive TT.TT
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmmmm yeah but its some thing like 20 dollar??
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, 20-30 USD. Just for shipping. I mean, if you didn't mind paying that much for shipping, I wouldn't mind sending it.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmmmmm Yeah think i wanna pay that much xD What do you pay for this wand?
π: 0 β©: 1
The shipping for all my wands within the US is just under $10. It's expensive because the boxes I send them in are long and irregular, so the Post Office charges more for those...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah i know but i wanna do how much cost a or this want?
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh, sorry. Including shipping, this wand was $38 USD.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ohh ok thats not much
But one more Qeusten is it mabey hopefully possible the the zilver part of this want can get Baby blue and the white part Zilver?
I hope that you can changes it or make an new one

(Ah, I meant that the person who commissioned this wand paid 38 USD for the wand and shipping in the US. I've sent it to them already.) Since I'm also sending yours by post, I have to include the price of shipping to the Netherlands, which is 60 USD total for the wand and shipping. That comes out to 45 Euro (but you'd need to change it to USD with your bank before sending payment...)
Also, I can't send you this specific wand because I don't repeat designs. If you still want me to make you a wand, I can do a similar design. Just let me know what you would like.
