out these wooden creations for
about a year now with no end in
sight. The enjoyment they derive
from their joint ventures accounts
for their devotion to a craft that
has, lately, started to saturate the
craft market.
Country crafts and a love for
these wooden teddy bears, sheep,
geese and ducks have possessed the
South for seyeral years now and
many people do create the little ob
jects.
So many, in fact, that craftsmen
find turning a profit very difficult.

money," explains Barbara.
"There are too many people doing
the same thing. We just enjoy
making them."
Barbara was instrumental in get
ting her husband into craft produc
tion.
"I love to go to craft shows and
finally I got Morris to go with mc.
Everything he saw, he'd say, 'I can
do that!' "
Now, Rozier, a shop employee
at Burlington Industries, is fully
devoted to the cutting, sanding and
staining of the wooden crafts. Bar
bara paints and adds decorative
touches to the finished products.
It is an arrangement which has
produced some very unique coun
try items.
The Roziers have readied for the
festival a lovely basket with slatted
bottom and goose-necked handles.
Beautifully stained and delicately
painted, it would suit anyone's
country home at fireside or on a
table, filled with flowers.
Other items to look for are teddy
bears, small reindeer, behatted
geese and small slatted baskets
complete with bread slices. All are
perfectly cut and smoothly sanded.
Although Barbara modestly pro
tests that her painting is basically
"trial and error," each item is neat
in detail and accenting colors.
For the many folks who enjoy
the country look in decor, a stop at
the Rozier's booth at the Festival
will be a must.
And just for the Festival, they
have planned a surprise cutting, so
be sure to catch this family act dur
ing the arts and crafts exhibit on
September 21.

for that puppet. He's got a mean
