A candy dish?

This is just a cute little candy dish (or whatever) that I hand carved.


Calling all cat lovers

I've done this in both light and dark woods. Hand carved.


Purely decorative spoon

This would be good either framed or just hung on a wall.


My latest 'creation'

I cut blocks of maple and purpleheart wood and glued them all together. Then I turned the bowl out on the lathe.
I added thin stripes of the purpleheart wood on the bottom for a more decorative look.

New Trinket Box Finish

This piece was stitched on white using HDF silks by another lady. Sandy got it all ready to frame and then I made the box for it to go into. The color paint is a perfect match to the silk used as the main color.

Heart Spoon

This has been very popular with the ladies Larry is teaching to carve.

A small bowl

This was turned on the lathe from a log that our son in law cut down on their lot.


Some New additions

This spoon has 104 total holes in it of various sizes. It took a lot of work for Larry to hand carve this one but it's pretty awesome.

Larry hand carved this spoon using a wonderful wood called Ambrosia Maple. The color and graining are very special.

This candle holder contains a glass enclosed votive candle. When it's lit and dark, the glow comes out all over the holder. Each piece of wood was individually cut and assembled before it was turned on the wood lathe.

A spoon for Sandy

I thought it was time to make a new spoon for Sandy's kitchen. This is Birdseye Maple which is a favorite wood in our house.

Lazy Susan

My sister in law asked if I could make her a lazy susan for the middle of her table. I played around with various types of wood, putting them all together and this is what I came up with.
The bottom turning mechanism isn't attached yet when this picture was taken.
