Ron Altier Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 My wife loves the small to tiny vases made of colorful wood. I started one of Yellow Hart and Purple Hart scraps. I didn't get too far before the purple Hart started giving me fits. It kept splintering off and looking ugly. I nearly tossed it a couple of times. I kept at it till I got some thing. I'm not happy with it, but I'll see what it looks like after a second finish is applied. If it looks decent, I'll post a picture. If not .................well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I'll delete this entry.... John Hechel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courtland Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Don't delete the entry Ron, take a picture of the project and post it here regardless what it looks like! Part of us learning from others is seeing what a disaster looks like because we all have em! I'd be very interested in seeing the turning either way.

Ron Altier Posted February 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I did get the small crochet needle vase completed and it don't look too bad. I had wood split out and some grain discoloring in the Purple Hart. She is happy with it and I was surprised it ended out as nice as it did. Nearly tossed it a couple of times.
