Thank you j just figured I would start at 0 to see what happens. Hope you win. Good luck and God Bless

You are right if does take along time to just get the material all the soaking and peeling and dying when I use different colors. Then the hide is just the same. Guess it would be quicker to buy but I handmake it right from beginning to end

I used to make stem from elk or deer hide but if they get wet, they fall apart kind of

Thank you. The higher the bids the more roses I will throw in

Thank you very much. If your bidding good luck and God Bless!

Real surprised how the bids are so low still. Had over 15 people asking for me to auction. This will probably be last one for the roses. Not worth doing for amount of time it takes to make. I usually only do them for special occasions. I guess that's the way it's meant to be.

Duane this is the 1st I've seen of this auction...what is it, exactly? Is it a decoration, made from elkhide and cedar? I guess it's the word 'Bow' that's throwing my comprehension off...I keep expecting it to be a weapon, or something...Fan as always, Watching and Bid...!

Hi lol ya it's just a decorative rose made of the bark from cedar. The same we make baskets from and I just cut a leaf out of elk hide and put if together. I used to make the whole stem from hide but if it got wet if would loosen up so I just make the leaf now. Usually only make these for weddings funerals and potlatches. But I had a few made and added them to a few auctions. Then I had quite a few requests for more. But only a few have bid. So this may be the the only one. I think it's a sign to keep them more ceremonial then for any other purpose.

Man, I got your message and have been bidding on it sense. Looks like there's a few that want your Roses. Well good luck on it, for I will be there till the end.

Thank you and good luck. Hope all is well with you and yours. It does look like a few are bidding now.

Thanks for the info! That makes them even more attractive in my eyes! Be well, and I'm watching and taking part!

Good luck everybody. God bless you and yours. Thanks for watching and bidding

Cool item, good to see.
