Potpourri x2

[Dave Haughs]

I made these for Mother's Day, one for my wife and one for my grandmother. The one is Maple (was supposed to be spalted) and the other I don't remember

Nicely done, Dave. I'd love to know what that first wood is... It's really nice.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Nice work on both of these Dave! I am sure the ladies cherish them!

[Bernie Weishapl]

Really pretty pots. They will be cherished forever.

[Dave Haughs]

Thanks. I've really got to find some turning time soon!

[John Keeton]

Nice job on these!! And, like David, I would like to know what the darker wood is - looks great!

[Bill Bulloch]

Nice job. I made my first Potpourri pot last week. I took a differest approach making it a different shape than yours and others I have seen posted here. Where did you get those lids? I really like them. The ones I used were pale in comparison.

[Paul Douglass]

Seems a waste to put stinky dead flowers in such beautiful work. Nice and I to like your lids. They look rich.

Its on the tip of my tongue and frustrating me, I'll get it figured out soon....

Lids are actually candle toppers. I waited a little too late to get them so I didn't have time to order them so I went to the candle store and got these. I probably over paid, but I did like them. They are pretty heavy too. I imagine you can get them anywhere they sell those candles in glass jars. Yankee Candle Co.

Like the others, I'd love to know what specie the dark one is:confused:. These are both really nice turnings, thanks for posting.

[Dave Haughs]

It might be Cocobolo but it seems darker. I've really got to start writing this stuff down.

The dark piece of wood looks like it maybe becote ... but what the hell do I know.

[Dave Haughs]

Yeah bocote is the other possibility. Almost positive it's one of those two....

In fact I think it is bocote.
