Candelabra 2009

For this year's family gift swap, Shayne did a variation of a candle holder. He made two. A set to hang on the wall and a set to put on a table or shelf.

The finish he applied with his hammer

The actual candle holder was pretty cool and very sharp to the touch

Candelabra

Christmas gift swap 2004
This Candelabra was actually more difficult than it looks. He tried to make one for last years gift swap ( instead the trivet), but it was just to difficult to get the swirlies on the end to be symmetrical and smooth

Middle Candle holder, there are three

Hammer finished
I think it is just beautiful, it sits on our mantle.
Yes, we have actually used it to burn candles in, red ones to be exact, the wax is a little messy

Heart Trivet

Every year Shayne makes something for the family party gift swap.
Last year he made trivets.
He usually makes two items, one for me and one for the party.
This one is mine

feet. there are three

welds

Signature stamp
Its on about everything he makes.

He whipped both of them up in a couple of hours the morning of the party.
Typical Shayne Carter
He says he works well under pressure,
but
His procrastination drives me crazy!
