JK, Hormel better not steal my design . Ken, I'm thinking about it...If I can learn Turkey in the Straw that might be another possibility (then I probably should paint turkeys)LOL. Carrie, I've got a few ideas....in tune with Battle Cry of Freedom...."up with the bacon and down with the Spam......"
Rob, thanks! I wasn't too happy with applying the paint. It's acrylic on latex semi gloss and the second bird pictured is two coats but it was a bit tricky. The gold paint (acrylic for all surfaces, first bird) didn't apply as well as I thought it would. If you have any suggestions I'm all ears. I did like the idea of getting stickers from that web site you gave me but the edit functions will not do a reverse of the image. I want the birds to face the fretboard. Any suggestions for something better?

So will the first song on your cardboard dulcimer be "I'll Fly Away"?
Patty, I think that Dan might be onto something with Hormel and the can design...maybe a "Spam in the Springtime" campaign.
Phil, Thanks!
like'em make sure you put an undercoat of white before using your yellow/gold, if you paint strate on top of the blue the yellow wont look right.
Those are West Virginia colors...right Rob? Rob, I need some help here JK, Dan, Carrie, you all ain't right, LOL
John, do you think Hormel would like this for a new can design?
Dan...it needed to be said.
ROFLMAO, John. I wonder what that could be? JK, you just ain't right.
Looks great Patty! The color scheme reminds me of a popular brand of potted meat in a can...

Looking good.... don't get any ideas about hummingbird feathers! I don't think they'd hold up
