Great video Mike. I made a set of flowers in a vase last year for my wife. Since it was mainly cutoffs used the cost was next to nothing and compared to a dozen roses.....my wife love the turned flowers 100 times more than the real flowers and saved me a bunch of $$$ to boot.
I think I'll try this idea. It seems that light colored wood works best if you plan on dyeing the petals. I'll experiment using food color to dye the different parts. Thanks for the useful tip on sanding, it can be used in many other projects as well. Like!
Wow, I looked up transtint dyes and they have really gone up in price since I bought a bottle of red, yellow and blue a few years ago. You can get some premixed dyes from CSUSA or Peachtree WW for a lot less if you are not planning on using large amounts. Food dye is likely to fade very quickly from UV exposure.
Great gift to give. Very nice Mike...! Mike I use the one gallon paint stir sticks with the spray adhesive for my two different grits double sided sanding boards. I have several sanding boards with different grits. Thanks so much for putting up this video show. Much appreciated. . .
You don't turn the inside? I've done flowers two ways before - inside out turning & turning at 90 degrees - but have never tried this one. Have to give it a shot! =)

Great project and helps justify our expensive toys!
Thanks for a great video. Easy to follow and very helpful for getting an idea for a little present.
I am sure she will like it. Safe turning.
Very nice Mike, I am very glad I found your channel.
Hello Mike,I like your video, fantastic and beautiful work. "Daumen hoch" Greetings from Ralph
I found that using my 1" belt sander does a great job of cleaning up the bandsaw cuts.
Great video Mike. I'm inspired to head out to the shop tonight and make a few of these. Thanks for the video!
Great! Glad I could help.
Great job Mike, I'm sure your wife will love them.
Take care

Good tip using paint sticks for folks that don't have a BS or TS. Thanks, Jack.
Your quite welcome Mike.
Will make some today!!!
Beautiful!
neat idea thanks
I finished mine today. I found Easter Egg coloring kits with just water make wonderful dye for the wood
Wells that is creative. Let us know in six months how the color held up. This may be a great tip - or not depending on the color longevity.
