Last batch of turnings for this Christmas I think - Steve K - 12-12-2015
Mostly bird house ornaments, various domestic woods. The birds are made from ebony(thanks Pinky) and Holly. Two piece tops from ornament left overs.

I still like your tree that you make and how nice the ornaments always are.
This time I see some new kind of birds there. Did you make them or buy them? If you bought them where?

Arlin; I made them, if you look closely they are very simple, just a couple of tear drop shapes. Here are three short videos to show how to do them. First one is a little blurry, sorry.

I've never made them myself - Hobby Lobby has a bunch of plastic MIC birds for a few bucks that look surprisingly good. They're in the dollhouse department.
Some neat variations on the theme Steve - especially like the bird on top peeking over rather than being on the perch or inside... going to have to use that idea.
