Salt n Pepper
« on: January 20, 2013, 11:02:41 pm »
I designed these salt and pepper shakers to be 2 1/4 inches square by 4 inches tall.  The woods used are Sapele ( an african wood that looks a lot like Mahogany ) and Holly.  The shakers were sealed with teak oil and then shellacked.  The S and the P have been inset.

This sounds so wrong, but "You got a lovely pair of shakers there" :o

Very nice work. Thank you for saying what kind of wood you used. The inlay is perfect. Such a nice job on that. Is it a gift for someone or is it for your own home? Either way it looks good. Thanks for sharing.

Neither, I am just building up inventory and trying out new ideas.  I use the winter time to do this kind of thing.
