Juniper lamps

Project by TwistedT posted 160 days ago 423 views 1 time favorited 5 comments Add to Favorites Watch

My first attempt at a couple of twisted juniper lamps. Let me tell you, it is a pain in the butt to try and drill a hole (for the cord) through such a small piece of TWISTED wood. Not sure how many more I want to make.

Hi TwistedT, there is a connection between your nickname and the decision to carve twisted lamps? :)
The Juniper wood gives a very nice result to your unique creativity.
I sow the bed frame which you made, those two pieces are marvelous.
Your creativity and the kind of wood are a winner combination.
I mark you as my buddy and waiting to see some more of your arts, especially of this kind of art. (Go with your heart and not with my willing, I will be happy if they will be the same :) )

Awesome job TwistedT. You did a great job on your first two lamps, these lamps look better then the first lamps that we had made. This shows that you have great talent and will continue to do well with juniper, it does take patience and practice. Even now, when we are drilling a floor lamp we do get stumped on how to get a cord through it.

I especially like your bases, great job you should be veyr proud of yourself!!! Email if you ever have any questions
