Tea light candle holder
Bit of a bad photo as it was taken on the phone. This is a tea light candle holder made out of an old fence post. I'm thinking of making two more the same shape but decreasing in size for a three tiered effect.

Thanks guys!!
it was an easy one to shape, i think i spent more time sanding, not sure if it was because the timber is so old and hard but i had a bugger of a time getting all the sanding marks out of it

Looks great. I will be taking the chain saw out to the mates farm next time I head out his way. He has a few just standing around hold up wire. Wonder if he will miss a few.
Dave,
hug the tree before you start the chainsaw.

Great design on the candle holder. I have done a bunch of these style of candle holders in a cascading series of three, and people love them. See below for one made out of Padouk:
