For a young friend's birthday - what could I make that a an 11-year-old girl could use? I'd already given her a little cocobolo lidded box some years ago so I decided on a pencil holder/cup. I'll give it to her tomorrow.
Walnut from a tree down the hill, drying about 10 years now, "danish" oil finish. I made it a little heavy in the base on purpose for stability. Not a very fancy turning, but hey, seems functional.

After I turned it I decided it was a little bit too tall so I cut a little off the top. The piece I turned off was accidentally the perfect size for a bracelet.
