Using a method taught to me by a close friend and fellow crafter, and following after the method used by the Huichol Indians, this broken board was made into a cross and used as a canvas to illustrate the Names of Jesus.
A tacky wax known as "Tackee Wax" (from an internet company Primitaveoriginals.com) is coated evenly on the wood. A design is carved into the wax, then, one at a time, size 11 seed beads are placed into the wax following the drawn patterns.
