A few weeks ago @lew posted a video about making twig vases and different types on Wednesday’s Wisdom. The ice storms we had last month has left me with plenty of branches to work with. Here’s a couple vases with a little birch crotch bowl from one of the branches. The larger vase has a glass tube glued in the center. They were quick and fun, finished with some satin spray lacquer.

Those do look fun Gordon! I really like the Birch signature bark left on the turnings, they unmistakingly Birch, really cool. The bowl has a neat figure in the center running through it, thanks for sharing this.

Those are great. You should have saved some of the twigs 🙂

Love that birch bark on them! We lost our birch many years ago but it lives on through some bowls.

Nice, it's a lot of fun to rescue supposed firewood isn't it?

Really like the spalting on the large one . I have never turned birch, it doesn't grow around here, but like the shapes and anything turning is GOOD😄

Wow @Gordon !! Those are really nice.
