PA Dutch Furniture Painting

 

I have recently developed an interest in PA Dutch painted furniture.   The candle box shown below is my latest foray into this area.  My next project in a Shenandoah Valley blanket chest.  

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

Turned Wood Pots

 

I have always like turning.   I recently decided to try a little something different.   I have never turned bowls and pots before so I decided to give it a try.  Since I have a lot of walnut and small pieces of curly maple,  I thought that I would try gluing up the two woods and turning the glued-up block.   Here are the first results.  Both the little pots below are about 4" square.   I have gotten some more curly maple and some bloodwood and plan to try some segmented turning next.
