I think this vase is very much the shape of an Ancient Greek vase. I personally think it shows off best with a light in it. I appreciate your process, and all of your skill and technique. Thank you!
Don’t listen to other ppl telling you to do things how they do, everyone has an opinion, the only opinion u should care about is you! Your pieces r amazing and I hope to order a tshirt very soon
That pink color is EVERYTHING! I mean, pink is my favorite color, so I'm biased, but this is the prettiest shade of pink! It looks exactly like my favorite nail polish, which has the same kind of hypershift. It also looks like the highest grade of rose quartz! I would love to see that color and texture in a project with something like burl or spalted maple...that would be incredible! Keep up the wonderful work! Designer Epoxy
Reminds me of a remote Chinese mountainscape with cherry blossoms everywhere, replete with jade like fog . Gorgeous. Conceptually, of course. I love it.
I think that "weird alien jellyfish mushroom" is about as good a description as you are going to get! I do like the designer epoxy being used in 3 different ways in the piece, I think that is interesting. Cool shape, definitely unique.
Breaking stone or glass - use a 3"-4" dia capped metal pipe about a foot long as "container". Make a 2" dia capped (both ends) "ram". Place material in the container and use the ram. Can use hammer on the ram when needed. I have a second ram which flatten which help to much finer crushed stone/glass which I use to fill in cracks. The cap of the container can be removed when needed to get material left in the container. (I also have smaller dia set for crushing small stones - I use this more often)
This is so unique. I love the chunks you added and enjoy when you “recycle” items from your previous turns. I also liked seeing how you made the lip on the vase. Designer Epoxy.
Gonna admit that I had my doubts going in to this video... but I really should know by now 'TRUST IN JIM!' You never let us down 👍 And you certainly won me over by the end. As always, have a great weekend buddy!
Definitely a unique piece. I think my favorite part is the resin "rocks" they almost look like gemstones. As always designer epoxy knocks it out of the park - love the hyper shift product!
LOVE the description, it fits!!!! Extremely cool piece!! I agree, not a pink person either, but it works for this..... Honestly, my favorite part is always "Jim vs the mold". 😂😂😂 Not a turner, but its fascinating to watch, a chunk something turn into a creative beauty.
I really do like this. It looks very organic and flowing, and it reminds me of a sea sponge, and yes, could be a jellyfish, too. A departure from the bowls and lidded vases, and it's successful! I'd like to see you take on more challenging organic, flowing, sculptural art pieces. And using the translucency of epoxy, these pieces could be really engaging, turning chemistry into nature and blending them into something artistic! Beautiful work Mr Sprague.
Jim, I love this piece when I saw you. Putting all those colors in I thought. Oh, my goodness, I think the only one I really don't care for is that lime green and you can always turn that to the back. It is beautiful
The vase is gorgeous! It also reminds me of stained glass or blown glass! It would be gorgeous to set the vase on a pedestal with a light inside the vase. The light would show all the colors from the inside out. Great job with the vase!
Definitely one of a kind. I like the shape but not the color.. My reaction when you applied the epoxy was 'Wow'. There's something about the colors after the finish has gone on that really changes it. Overall, i love watching and next weekend I'm taking my first woodturning class. I've been making jewelry from clay and beads for 8 years now and i guess its on to my next adventure. Thank you. ❤ Designer Epoxy
Cotton Candy / Candy Floss Mushroom / Jellyfish Vase! And the broken resin pieces look like hard candy or ribbon candy. 🙂 I don't particularly like this vase, but I do love watching you come up with these ideas! Some end up great, some not so much, but they're interesting and worth doing (and watching).
The thumbnail picture of this Jellyfish Vase is just FABULOUS!!!!!! I absolutely LOVE the colours you chose. Waiting for the video to start as a pot of coffee brews. Fresh snowfall in Newfoundland this morning makes a serene view out my front window. This video making it the perfect start to my day!!!! THANKS JIM!!!!!! Cindy Ings NL, Canada
Jim, have to say this one didn’t float my boat. I still appreciate your work and creativity that you bring to your work. Always look forward to the next project. 👍💕
I love the Jellyfish vase! The colors are amazing. My first thought was that it has a Grecian urn vibe. Cool. Very different from what you usually turn. Great job Jim! ❤️
I love watching the vacuum chamber. The poor bucket 😂. The piece reminds me of a mix between a tulip and a cala lily, it's really cool and very creative. Such a unique piece. It's weird, which is why I like it, lol. Designer Epoxy
I actually really like this one, Jim, and I admit I wasn't sure partway through HAHA A thought for a future project might be to make the folded down rim much longer, which might give it a look a bit like an abstract flower!
I just love it! Saw that thumbnail and I clicked SO fast! _Fantastic_ colours & form. Cheers! And wow, your channel is growing fast! Keep up the great work!
I’m really like the shape, especially the mushroom top. I don’t like the multiple colours as much. I think all pink or all one colour would have made it stunning!!!!
You managed to make the most convincing faux rose quartz I have ever seen and quite frankly that is freaking awesome I'm not really a pink person either but if this piece ain't just absolutely gorgeous..
When I saw the thumbnail I really didn't think I would like this one, but I am very pleasantly surprised and happy to say I do like it! I especially like the hyper shift. Brilliant! 😀
Watching you from a very 🌞 Western Australia. 38oC so I’m watching from the pool. I love the unique shape and use of odds and ends. It wouldn’t be out of place in a modern gallery 😊
I have to say this is my favorite vase shape. The resin looks like cotton candy. The clear hypershift with black walnut and walnut shells would be spectacular. Designer epoxy
I love your videos cuz you explain most of it and you show most of what you're doing most of the people that do these kind of videos just speed through it and I don't like that so thank you for making them long I love them long to know everything that you're doing
The pink is gorgeous! One of the things that came to mind as I watched this, is that this is very much an exercise in patience. The odd occasion you show it in real time is important, especially to anyone just starting out. You absolutely cannot rush this process. I’ve never been good with projects that take a long time to finish, as patience is NOT one of my virtues! This one has fairy vibes to me. The colors, the shape, very fantasyish. Thanks again for a wonderful Saturday morning!
I bet you could make some really pretty lamp shades and bases that match. Love that the resin shavings look so soft . Watching wood turning in memory of my Mama . She loved watching in her last years, 80+ .
WOW --HAD NO IDEA THAT YOUR PROBLEMS WERE THIS HARD BUT YOUR EXPERANCE DOING THIS IS AMAZING --NO ONE CAN TELL AN ARTIS HOW TO MAKE THE PRODUCT YOOU WANT SO FAR THEY ARE BUTIFULL ==THAT JELLY FISH ITEM TRUNED OUT SO PRETTY --GREAT WOOK JIM🥰🥰🥰
This is absotively, posilutely my favorite of all your pieces! I adore the fun shape, the contrast of the wood with the resin, and yes, pink is my favorite color 😊 And the hypershift *chef's kiss*
Found your channel by chance. I'm a fiber artist and have done some rudimentary work ceramic work. I love these videos. I actually watch them while I crochet. I've learned a lot about a fabulous artform! I really appreciate the way you break it down so that even people not in the craft can follow. Look forward to watching more!
I don't know why I bother judging the thumbnails as it always looks so much more vibrant and amazing when I actually watch the videos - this one made me laugh at so many stages; the colours, the shapes (your persistence in the face of many a frustration...) was just so playful and fun.
Magnificent!!! Consider yourself a top artist. Yes Jellyfish is perfect name. Part of being an artist is having ideas you don't know how it will work and taking a chance anyway. Also working with colors you won't usually work with expands your horizions. Keep up the great work and don't let those who grumble get you mad.
Thanks for your transparency Jim. I used to be a manager at Pizza-Pizza in Pet back in 2000 and then had my own store to manage in Renfrew. i thank-you for your service. I love watching your channel when I have the time to do so. Happy `24 to you and yours. Keep going Bro. I`ll keep watching you spin your beautiful creations.
Your work is truly beautiful. I love watching your videos at night. I find it really relaxing and for some reason watching you shave things down on the lathe is really satisfying. I absolutely love that you use the things most people would throw away like shavings and leftover resin in your art pieces. Great way to reduce waste and get the most out of the money you spend on supplies.
Another relatable comparison is sort of like a pitcher plant, which would be a neat project too. Looking great as always, which also always feels like an understatement to say; your pieces truly have a knack for being unique, identifiable, and a reflection of your style and process. Thank you for sharing, Jim.
I'm always amazed by the stuff you make! I am also amazed that people can see how skilled you are and how many epoxy pieces youve made and will still armchair critique you on something theres no chance they're better or have more experience at it than you Edit: the spitoon thing is for sure from movies where it wasn't actually being used for its intended purpose, it's a bucket to spit in, why would saloon owners spend money to make it a fancy bucket, its like the holy grail if it was found it'd just be a plain old cup because back then thats what it was, it only been seen as important in the years after the event
Your projects are beautiful with and without spacers. And tell people that are complaining that if they have a problem with it then they can buy your supplies 😊
I like the way you just threw everything at this project. Very brave and fun decision. I especially like the epoxy gems and look forward to seeing more projects with those epoxy chunks.
For the towel, you could try burlap. It's a pretty tough fabric. Or denim. Something heavy that the resin isn't going to go straight through. I love fun pieces like this.
To be honest, it’s not my favorite piece. But that’s the best thing about doing art pieces. Everyone has a different taste in it. Don’t stop being creative. You really pushed me to try all kinds of new stuff when it comes to turning. Thanks Jim
To me it screams life saver. Bubblegum flavour. I really enjoyed the video and your design decisions based on the casting issues. It was a great save in my book. I too am not a pink fan, but you make it work. Thanks. Designer epoxy
at first I thought oh boy, but it does give off the mushroom vibe at first but then jelly fish I can see. I love the pinks, and all the colors ' and that hypershift never dissapoints! just beautiful. love it
WOW!! ❤ A BEAUTIFUL piece of art!!! Jelly fish fits perfect! You are so talented and I love the way you talk through your process!. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us!
Certainly a unique piece this week Jim. The colours and hyper shift you used look like fairy floss. Looking from top it reminds me of a life saving bouy. Love watching your videos each week. Keep doing you!
Another beautiful piece of art. I like how you are willing to try different things. The best thing about art is eventhough some may not like it others may love it. Keep up the great work.
When I have resin leftovers I too put them in a bowl but itip the bowl sideways and it makes for a very pretty result. Love the jellyfish bowl with designer epoxy
So cool! I love the colors Pink and Purple so this is something I would buy. Its so Beautiful and Unique. I wish I could afford to buy it but Im on disability so unfortunately Im unable to. I was thinking Mushroom instead of Jellyfish but it could be both. Designer Epoxy ❤
Well, once again, you outdid yourself absolutely beautiful like the way the pink comes through on the top. It looks like their swirls are baby lights, reflecting in the epoxy. I’m having a hard time describing it but it’s really cool nice job excellent work as always. Thank you for sharing. I really appreciate it. Designer epoxy
You make the coolest stuff with Designer Epoxy, not gonna lie! It's cute and quirky and absolutely makes me think jellyfish! Love it! I can see you making another one like this with blues and greens and hypershift!
It is very colourful & unique! Very clever making this vase out of recycled past lathe projects. I love the the sparkly-ness of this (love love love hyper-shift)! I would use it to hold my Venus Fly Trap plant because it needs something unique to put in this unique plant pot... And it looks like you made it out of cotton candy (Cotton Candy swirling clouds). Another very cool project Jim!
Absolutely love the shape and would probably prefer darker color combinations but, you're the artist and your visions are what reigns on your channel. The Designer Epoxy hypershift still impresses.
I liked the video. Watching you go through dealing with issues helps me add to my own arsenal. Jellyfish, yes, but it's upside down. Okay, I don't much care for pink. I like the shape; though you are a braver man than me, undercutting the outside rim like that!
I love how colorful this is. It’s beautiful. I even like the pink. Whether it’s a mushroom or a jellyfish, doesn’t really matter. Put that on a shelf in your house and people will be talking about it for a very long time.
Hi Jim, it’s such a happy piece as I’m looking at it and just smiling. The wood looks golden under the lights, like its holding it together. The top looks like rose quartz and it absolutely beautiful. Very feminine I think. Thanks again for your hard work and staying with it! Take care Jan x
This project reminded me of experimenting with mud and sticks as a kid. You are just having fun and you know you're going to get yield when you go home..
I was given the wrong information from Designer Epoxy, the sale is only from 12 to 15 Jan. Sorry for the confusion.
I think this is the most beautiful piece 🥹❤
So, you got a resin nazi?? OMG...you're a grown man with a very informative webpage. You GO, GUY! Just tell the resin nazi, "NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!"
This is a beautiful piece and so colorful! I just love it!!
Maybe there is too much air in the shavings you put in? Caused holes?

That shredded resin looks incredible, like quartz.
Thank you very much!
Please make more jellyfish, this is a unique and ethereal blend of ideas. Such a relaxing pleasure to watch too.
Thank you very much!

Yes, it’s the everything vase! 😂
I think of cotton candy when looking at it. The jellyfish I know are not this color at all.
Lion's Mane in SE Alaska. Thinking maybe you have a pink puffer fish or something if you like the ocean vibe.
Breaking stone or glass - use a 3"-4" dia capped metal pipe about a foot long as "container". Make a 2" dia capped (both ends) "ram". Place material in the container and use the ram.

Thanks so much!
This turned out amazing! Love how you talk through what you're doing and the thought process behind your decisions.
Thank you very much!
Jim, I love this piece when I saw you. Putting all those colors in I thought. Oh, my goodness, I think the only one I really don't care for is that lime green and you can always turn that to the back. It is beautiful
Thanks so much 😊
I think this is one of the neatest shapes I've seen you make. I'm not a pink person particularly, but this looks really cool.
Thank you so much!
The vase is gorgeous! It also reminds me of stained glass or blown glass! It would be gorgeous to set the vase on a pedestal with a light inside the vase. The light would show all the colors from the inside out. Great job with the vase!
Thank you very much!
Jim, your videos are never too long!
Thank you very much!
I love the hypershift in the vase.
Thanks so much!

I'm so jealous! Enjoy the beautiful snow and cold weather! Florida is supposed to be really cold tomorrow, I hope!
Jim, have to say this one didn’t float my boat. I still appreciate your work and creativity that you bring to your work. Always look forward to the next project. 👍💕
I appreciate that! Thanks!
Very whimsical and funky! Well done Jim
Thank you very much!
I love the Jellyfish vase! The colors are amazing. My first thought was that it has a Grecian urn vibe. Cool. Very different from what you usually turn. Great job Jim! ❤️
Grecian urn look is true.
Thank you so much!
Some days you are the bucket, some days the mallet... Beautiful work Jim!
Thank you kindly
Also very glass like! Beautiful 😍

Thank you very much!
I actually really like this one, Jim, and I admit I wasn't sure partway through HAHA A thought for a future project might be to make the folded down rim much longer, which might give it a look a bit like an abstract flower!
It can be done, but it’s pretty tough to cut up under that rim. Thanks
Designer Epoxy. Wow the inside cut on the upper lip is an amazing display of workmanship. I would have been so afraid of a catch. Great job.
Thank you so much!
Awesome 👍 so colorful I would love to have one! It would be cool to actually try making one with candy in it!❤
It wouldn’t survive the turning process. Thanks
I just love it! Saw that thumbnail and I clicked SO fast! _Fantastic_ colours & form. Cheers!
And wow, your channel is growing fast! Keep up the great work!

Glad you like it!
Never worry about the length of the videos you produce. I have watched videos of nearly 8 hours length. The more the better. And I adore your videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Watching you from a very 🌞 Western Australia. 38oC so I’m watching from the pool.
I love the unique shape and use of odds and ends.
It wouldn’t be out of place in a modern gallery 😊
Awesome! Thank you so much! I’m jealous you are sitting by the pool! 🥶 -10 here in Canada!
I have to say this is my favorite vase shape. The resin looks like cotton candy. The clear hypershift with black walnut and walnut shells would be spectacular. Designer epoxy
Thanks so much!
I love your videos cuz you explain most of it and you show most of what you're doing most of the people that do these kind of videos just speed through it and I don't like that so thank you for making them long I love them long to know everything that you're doing

Thanks again for a wonderful Saturday morning!
Thanks so much!
I bet you could make some really pretty lamp shades and bases that match.
Love that the resin shavings look so soft .
Watching wood turning in memory of my Mama . She loved watching in her last years, 80+ .
Thank you very much!
WOW --HAD NO IDEA THAT YOUR PROBLEMS WERE THIS HARD BUT YOUR EXPERANCE DOING THIS IS AMAZING --NO ONE CAN TELL AN ARTIS HOW TO MAKE THE PRODUCT YOOU WANT SO FAR THEY ARE BUTIFULL ==THAT JELLY FISH ITEM TRUNED OUT SO PRETTY --GREAT WOOK JIM🥰🥰🥰
Thanks so much!
This is absotively, posilutely my favorite of all your pieces! I adore the fun shape, the contrast of the wood with the resin, and yes, pink is my favorite color 😊 And the hypershift *chef's kiss*
Thank you so much!
I really like the live chat. Thank you for giving us even more of your time.
You are so welcome! Thanks
You are my primary turning channel.
Been watching you whenever I get the time. Your jellyfish looks great.
Awesome job. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
Awesome! Thank you!
It would never be a Sprague Woodturning video without a struggle! 😂 😆 😝 ❤
So true!
Found your channel by chance. I'm a fiber artist and have done some rudimentary work ceramic work. I love these videos. I actually watch them while I crochet. I've learned a lot about a fabulous artform! I really appreciate the way you break it down so that even people not in the craft can follow. Look forward to watching more!
Welcome aboard! Thank you very much!
I don't know why I bother judging the thumbnails as it always looks so much more vibrant and amazing when I actually watch the videos - this one made me laugh at so many stages; the colours, the shapes (your persistence in the face of many a frustration...) was just so playful and fun.
Thank you very much!
Same here I love watching him learn as he goes, he's all l I e I wonder if this will work.....well let's find out together❤😂❤😂❤😂
Absolutely gorgeous! Would buy it in a second!
Wow, thank you!
Magnificent!!! Consider yourself a top artist. Yes Jellyfish is perfect name. Part of being an artist is having ideas you don't know how it will work and taking a chance anyway. Also working with colors you won't usually work with expands your horizions. Keep up the great work and don't let those who grumble get you mad.

You have my mum raving over this one. She just wished we could afford some of these pieces!
Designer epoxy for the win!
Awesome Thank you very much!
Thanks for your transparency Jim. I used to be a manager at Pizza-Pizza in Pet back in 2000 and then had my own store to manage in Renfrew. i thank-you for your service. I love watching your channel when I have the time to do so. Happy `24 to you and yours. Keep going Bro. I`ll keep watching you spin your beautiful creations.
Thank you very much! Same too you!
Absolutely beautiful.. my mother's ashes are buried in Newfoundland . I'm in Texas and love watching.. ❤
Thanks for that! How does a Newfie end up in Texas, lol.
@SpragueWoodturning I was born here. My mother's side is from Newfoundland though..
Your work is truly beautiful. I love watching your videos at night. I find it really relaxing and for some reason watching you shave things down on the lathe is really satisfying.

OH MY GOD 😍😍 Pink is my favorite color. I wouldn't be able to not look at this.
Thank you very much!
I had no idea where you were going with this project ... and no idea as to how wonderful it would turn out! Bravo, good sir! Truly creative!
Thank you very much!
Another relatable comparison is sort of like a pitcher plant, which would be a neat project too.
Looking great as always, which also always feels like an understatement to say; your pieces truly have a knack for being unique, identifiable, and a reflection of your style and process.
Thank you for sharing, Jim.
Thank you very much!
WOW thats Awesome. Very Pretty color combination. Good job.!😊
Thank you! 😊
looks like a life preserver on top but I love the colors, very nice
It does! Thanks!
Very unique piece and another awesome project...Thank you!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I think this is one of the most interesting hollow form you have made so far.
Agreed, thanks!
I'm always amazed by the stuff you make!
I am also amazed that people can see how skilled you are and how many epoxy pieces youve made and will still armchair critique you on something theres no chance they're better or have more experience at it than you
Edit: the spitoon thing is for sure from movies where it wasn't actually being used for its intended purpose, it's a bucket to spit in, why would saloon owners spend money to make it a fancy bucket, its like the holy grail if it was found it'd just be a plain old cup because back then thats what it was, it only been seen as important in the years after the event
😂😂 so true! Thanks so much!
Your projects are beautiful with and without spacers. And tell people that are complaining that if they have a problem with it then they can buy your supplies 😊
Thank you very much!
I find it not only very interesting to watch your work, but also extremely relaxing, thanks for sharing your awe3some talent!!!
Thank you so much!
The layers of colour are very cool!
Good morning all
Designer Epoxy
Thank you very much!
I like the way you just threw everything at this project. Very brave and fun decision. I especially like the epoxy gems and look forward to seeing more projects with those epoxy chunks.
Thanks so much!
For the towel, you could try burlap. It's a pretty tough fabric. Or denim. Something heavy that the resin isn't going to go straight through. I love fun pieces like this.
Thanks for the suggestion!
How about sandwiching the resin pieces between two pieces of wood instead of a towel and then hitting the top piece of wood with the hammer?
To be honest, it’s not my favorite piece. But that’s the best thing about doing art pieces. Everyone has a different taste in it. Don’t stop being creative. You really pushed me to try all kinds of new stuff when it comes to turning. Thanks Jim
Wow! Thanks so much!
Would have scalloped the edge on that. Definitely has Florida vibes, colorful pastels very pretty
Thanks
I would buy this in an instant. It's beautiful.
Thanks so much! It is still for sale.
To me it screams life saver. Bubblegum flavour. I really enjoyed the video and your design decisions based on the casting issues. It was a great save in my book. I too am not a pink fan, but you make it work. Thanks. Designer epoxy
Awesome, thank you!
at first I thought oh boy, but it does give off the mushroom vibe at first but then jelly fish I can see. I love the pinks, and all the colors '
and that hypershift never dissapoints! just beautiful. love it
Thank you very much!
WOW!! ❤ A BEAUTIFUL piece of art!!! Jelly fish fits perfect! You are so talented and I love the way you talk through your process!. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us!
Thank you very much!
Your most unique vase yet, Jim!! I agree it's very flowing and natural, form wise. I'm sure this one took a lot more time to finish. designer epoxy
Thank you! Cheers!
Certainly a unique piece this week Jim. The colours and hyper shift you used look like fairy floss. Looking from top it reminds me of a life saving bouy. Love watching your videos each week. Keep doing you!
Thank you! Cheers!
Well Jim I can't say I love this piece. It is unusual and it looked better from a distance. I always enjoy watching your videos.
Many thanks!
Another beautiful piece of art. I like how you are willing to try different things. The best thing about art is eventhough some may not like it others may love it. Keep up the great work.

I think it's just brilliant that you don't throw away waste and reuse them in a different piece. I turned out beautiful, pink is my most fav colour!
Thank you! 😊
I like the pink, coming from someone who is into pink flamingos. It’s definitely an original. Designer epoxy is great!
Thank you very much!
You make the coolest stuff with Designer Epoxy, not gonna lie! It's cute and quirky and absolutely makes me think jellyfish! Love it! I can see you making another one like this with blues and greens and hypershift!
Thank you so much 😀
It is very colourful & unique! Very clever making this vase out of recycled past lathe projects. I love the the sparkly-ness of this (love love love hyper-shift)! I would use it to hold my Venus Fly Trap plant because it needs something unique to put in this unique plant pot... And it looks like you made it out of cotton candy (Cotton Candy swirling clouds). Another very cool project Jim!
Thank you very much!
I love the pink, it reminds me of rose quartz. This case is beautiful.
Thank you very much!
No matter what it is. It is totally awesome 😎 and I love the green in it. Definitely a challenge but you did it !!! Great job 👏
Thanks so much!!
Oh my, this piece is so different and interesting. I LOVE IT!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Absolutely love the shape and would probably prefer darker color combinations but, you're the artist and your visions are what reigns on your channel. The Designer Epoxy hypershift still impresses.
Thank you so much 😀
I liked the video. Watching you go through dealing with issues helps me add to my own arsenal.
Jellyfish, yes, but it's upside down. Okay, I don't much care for pink. I like the shape; though you are a braver man than me, undercutting the outside rim like that!
Thank you very much!
Hi Jim this mushroom vase is magnificent and unique well done Jim you are so talented. Thank you forva marvellous video. Amanda xx
Many thanks!
I love how colorful this is. It’s beautiful. I even like the pink. Whether it’s a mushroom or a jellyfish, doesn’t really matter. Put that on a shelf in your house and people will be talking about it for a very long time.
Thanks very much!
I'm surprised by how much I like the resin shavings in castings. Love the depth and hypershift, but then I do like color. The brighter the better. 😊
Thank you very much!
Hi Jim, it’s such a happy piece as I’m looking at it and just smiling. The wood looks golden under the lights, like its holding it together. The top looks like rose quartz and it absolutely beautiful. Very feminine I think. Thanks again for your hard work and staying with it! Take care Jan x
Thank you kindly!
This project reminded me of experimenting with mud and sticks as a kid. You are just having fun and you know you're going to get yield when you go home..
It is fun, lol. Thank you very much!
I love this, thecolours just 'pop'. Well done, you should be wrapped with what you achieved. 🎉❤❤
Thanks so much!
I love your work and it’s great to hear your thoughts as you go! I don’t do this kind of work but maybe one day I can!
You can do it! Thanks
Reminds me of a colorful granite flower urn. Love the colors and everything about the piece 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you very much!
