I spent a few hours on Saturday with with my 6-year-old daughter making some turned Christmas ornaments. I pretty much just made them up as I went along. The snowman with the brown hat is poplar with an trans-tint hat and lacquer finish. The other snowman has india ink for the hat color and tung oil with lacquer. The bell is a mix of scraps- cherry, mahogany, poplar, pine. The angel is poplar with magnolia wings. I'll probably make a few more next weekend, since the lathe is already out and I've got a big barrel full of scraps.
