Necklace rack for SIL

My brother asked me to make something for his wife to hang her necklaces on for Christmas. He had no idea what he wanted so he left it up to me to design. I looked through LJ to get some ideas and nothing hit me. I had some strips of oak and bass wood. I glued them together and turned the pedestal. I turned the base from oak. I took a piece of cedar and turned the cross piece.

Christmas Eve he was going to take her out for dinner so I asked him to bring her by my house so I could see her face when he gave it to her as he had to pick it up anyway. She was very pleased.

I used three different kinds of wood. Oak, bass wood, cedar.
