It seems that I'm reporting on Richard's great work rather than my own work. This finish is too pretty to not report. So Richard decided to make a vase to put flowers on his dad's grave. He used some of the cypress wood that he recently acquired. It's beautiful, even without the flowers.
Each side is just a little different because of the wood grain, but every one also has a perfect little cross.
According to the guys the cypress wood won't deteriorate for many years, even though it's exposed to the elements while sitting on a grave.
I haven't yet, but I'm thinking of asking him to build another for my grandmother's grave. What do you think?
What a beautiful vase! It's good that Richard was able to do something for his dad's gravesite. I'm sure Father's Day was extra difficult for him.
