This Christmas confetti candle is made from wild black cherry, and is 6in. D X 3 in. T with a lacquer finish. The inlay is malachite, red coral, coffee grounds, black CA glue, and brass. I thought I would make it with a Christmas theme to attract buyers for a show I am to do in November. As always your comments pro and con are more than welcomed.

That is really cool. I wonder how small I could make one on my delta midi...

Also wondering, how hard is it to work with the malachite (sp)? I do a ton of pen turnings and I wondering would it be feasible for something that small? Thanks.

Jeremiah, malachite is a medium hardness which can be sanded. Thanks for all the positive comments, I believe I can improve on the design of the tree.
