As an entry level woodworker I’d like to know what steps I need to take for drying cut timber?

I have recently come upon some timber that was a dead limb off of a tree. It was still wet in the core and I wanted to use it for a few wood working crafts. I’m trying to find out how I should dry it and what the schedule is for drying such a log. It is about 3.5 feet long and roughly 10 inches thick. Any suggestions?

I’d like to start a project (craft or food-ish) but no idea what?

I’m a pretty detail oriented person. I like things that even a dummy can make look good. I have done counted cross stitch in the past and as long as you follow the directions, it turns out!

Always wanted to try cake stuff or gingerbread maybe….maybe something that would be done and pretty for a holiday coming up…
