Epoxy and crushed stones fill natural voids.
Scroll sawn initials leaving a negative space in 1/8” wood. Glue matching piece to make it 1/4” thick. Fill initial with Epoxy and stone for a personalized medallion….or key chain.
Use same techniques, different designs, for picture or mirror frame embellishment.
