Stocking stuffers part II

[John Miliunas]

Here's a couple more stocking stuffers. I also threw in another one of the Cherry Burl bowl I showed some time ago, but this time, I'm trying out some rudimentary photo lighting.

The first is a roundish Redwood confettin lamp, the next is another "I dunno" wood, with some voids filled w/inlace and then there's the retake of the CB bowl. Again, thanks for looking and comments are welcome!:) :cool:

[John Hart]

I think they're all great John!!!! Nice form...nice finish...Great wood! Wonderful gifts. That reminds me...I haven't made a single gift yet. Can I have some of yours?;) :D :D

[Bill Stevener]

Boy, that was quick. I just finished the reply to your first showing. These look great as well. Like the "dunno" one, just seems to look like a lamp style.

I go out of town for a few days and suddenly everybody is an artist, this is just not fair. they look great John:) .

[John Miliunas]

Thanks gents, you're too kind. Not exactly what one would term as gallery pieces but, most of the family recipients appreciate the effort.:) And John, NO, you can't have any!!! I need every last bit of these and then some! Besides, you could easily knock out the same amount in a couple hours flat and do them right! :D Now quit playing with your teeeeeeny, tinnnnnnnny "Ugly Stick" and get at it!:D Thanks again guys.:) :cool:

Wow John, those look great. I believe though that you need a warning on them "Do not light before placing in stocking". Just trying to be helpful.:D

I dunno if I can post this or not-- but it's John's post so he can zip it if he so wishes.

All I have to say is, The AAW web site, ain't got nothin on this show:D .

Kewel, John, just kewel! Santa has competition!

[Mark Cothren]

Nice lamps, John! Very nice!

Thanks for the pictures!

[Andy Hoyt]

Have you been sneaking stuff off Normah's site too? Actually I guess not because these are way better than "ours".

Think I like the Cherry muffin burl in the other thread the most, but they're all nicely done. And the pitcher taking aint too shabby either.

[Roy Wall]

John,

[John Nicholas]

Something that I can turn in a short time and have some items for Christmas.

The word from Wally World is keep on pumping those candles out we have a new super store (half finished) near Moro to pay for.:D :D

All kidding aside they are very nice.;)

Really nice looking lamps. They'd make nice gifts for Christmas. Where did you get the inserts? Great looking bowl!

[Bob Noles]

John,

After knowing you from upstairs for nealry a year now, I had no idea that you were a turner and was surprised when I saw the announcement making you a moderator down here in the turner forum. I think the pictures in these 2 threads certainly explains it all to me now :)

Beautiful work John! I can only hope to one day post something even close to being as nice as those.

Thanks for sharing.
