I got inspired by Bob Ross and made happy little trees.
Actually, these were made for my sister in law as a surprise. We happened to be at their house while they were getting some trees trimmed and I snagged a couple sections thinking I would make something with them. As it "turned" out, I made trees. These were a lot of fun and pushed me a little bit as they are most certainly not a turned pen or bottle stopper. Great way to work on other techniques to make me a better turner.
Unfortunately, I'm not 100% sure what the wood is but think it may have been from an ornamental pear. The finish is spray lacquer.
