Holding small things

It's been a while, time to blog again.............

I have been making these tropical wood hearts for a few years now and they are very popular. I make them in four sizes- 3", 5 1/4", 6 1/2" and 8". 

 They are dished out in the middle to hold keys, change, jewelry, etc.

I've also been adding colored resin to some of my turnings. Here are two small bowls, but I've also done some large ones which I'll show shortly.

2017 San Diego Fair- Design in Wood

I was again fortunate enough to be awarded an Honorable Mention in the mixed materials division.

It's a mixture of mahogany, paduk,  goncalo alves, wenge and dyed resin. I named it Draught Buster.

This one was called DOTS. It's a mixture of dowels, aluminum rod, bamboo and dyed resin.

And this one is called She Sells Seashells. It's a mixture of quilted Washington maple, sliced seashell and clear resin.
