That’s a great idea for candle holders and potpourri. Good work sir.

Looks good Todd. I agree with Rikkor about the candle holders. However, I think I like the bowl on the left in the first picture.

I made that one from a large cotton wood branch that fell from a tree at my church. I brought the wood home with the thought of burning it, but decided to try my hand at a natural edge bowl. Now whenever a branch or tree falls I ask myself do I turn it or burn it.

Todd, How is the cottonwood for turning? Is it soft? Does it sand out okay?
