Eastern Red Cedar. It's inexpensive and easy to work and looks nice. The bonus is you save the chips and the house smells great. In a sachet, the chips can go in drawers to keep the bugs away. Win win.

Also, I have figured out a way to make choker-necklace fastenings that will be longer-lived & easier to fasten than those horrid metal grippy bars with the attached pull loop, that part company with the choker band at the slightest provocation.
