Some more ornaments that I turned last Sunday. I'm having a blast making them, quick and easy, and I think they will look great hanging on the tree. :D
The first 3 ... The middle is my favorite. The one on the left is the one I posted a while back.

and four more.

All are Box Elder burl and Cocobolo with CA finish.
As promised I plan on putting together a photo tutorial on these for those that have asked. I will try to get it done sometime this week.
Comments/Critiques always welcome,

Beautiful ornaments Shane. I have to agree with you on my favorite, but really like the shape of the 3rd one.
