Finally reaching the end of the ornaments I have to make.
I do have one wood in particular that I would like to post about.
I have always been a great admirer of Bethlehem Olive Wood, and several months ago I ordered several 2"x2"x12" turning blocks from Diane at BOW (see the IAP homepage for link). If you haven't ordered from BOW, not only is the wood some of the most beautiful on the planet, but Diane and Ghasan are some of the friendliest and most caring people you will ever have the pleasure of ordering from.
pic-1)Start with a nice BOW turning block.
pic-2)cut/glue a 2"x2"x2" block to a waste block
pic-3)and you have an ornament
The finial and icicle are made of bloodwood.
Sorry for the quality of the photo.
