Both photos are of the same pine cone. The lighter side is more of the center where it is soft. The dark side is where the quills attach. There is turquoise and red coral put into the gaps where the quills flew out.Those sugar cones must be huge....Is that just the 'stem' from the inside of the sugar photo'd on the bottom?
And do I see some PR mixed into the top one!
Well turned!!!
