    Default Couldn’t show this one until after Christmas!

    Our middle daughter saw the little timber Christmas trees I’d made for the local community clubs fund raiser and commented that she’d like a set for her Christmas table decorations.
    Of course I took the hint and secretly made a set for her.
    Offcuts and recycled/reclaimed timber laminated together to give a contrast.
    The top piece of timber was a very rich dark red but looks dark brown with the finish.
    One at 8” (200mm) and two at 6” (150mm) with both finished with my homemade WipeOnPoly.

    I got the biggest smile and hug; paid in full.

    Cheers crowie

    When I first saw these I thought you had been baking and the tops were dipped in melted chocolate. They do look good and I am sure she was over the moon with them and you deserved the big hug from her.
