Yesterday, in celebration of Easter, I made, what I’m calling, an Easter Basket Plant Pot Bowl:
The bowl is made of Maple with a band of Padauk running around its center. It’s approximately 4″ tall and 6″ in diameter. Because it is to be used as a flower pot I made the walls a bit thicker than I normally would, at about 1/2″.
Here is a photo of the three pieces of wood cut in circles:
And here they are stacked:
And clamped:
This one shows the outside turned and the bottom spigot:
This one is a good shot showing the shape of the bowl. The matching shape was also turned inside the bowl:
And this one shows the bowl with a plant installed:
Note the combination of Easter Eggs and Christmas Cactus. This is a very versatile flower pot – it’s great for ALL occasions! 🙂
