Driftwood may be gathered anytime of year in Parksville B.C.

Cleaning the Driftwood

Using a water based wash including some bleach for obvious reasons!

I also let the sunlight dry out the driftwood pieces once the wash is complete!

Accessories Galore!

Depending on the size of your Dragon the tools that may help you are:

Air Gun Compressor - Really not that difficult to use! ( saying that please use safety and a reliable person to teach you. )

Hot Glue Gun - Comes in all shapes and sizes and you will soon have a favourite one if this becomes an obsession!

Take care of your hands while using any kind of tool!!

Find a Special Place to Create!

Where ever you find piece and a place that your Dragon can grow into it's own is the place for you to create!

The pieces will come together like magic!!

That's what happens when you create a Dragon!

Really!

Look Who Is Watching!
