At the last meeting of the GAW the demo was on sea urchin ornaments. I ordered a few and here are the first 3 that I have made. These are fun to make and don't take very long. These are all going to be gifts at a Christmas party tomorrow. The largest one is 4" tall and both are finished with spray lacquer. On a side note I had a little "date" with the skew on the green finial and we are trying to be friends...Comments are welcome. Thanks for looking, Russell

Nice work on these, Russell. The urchins have always fascinated me, and I wonder if they will take dye. Would be interesting!!

Those should light up a tree Russel! My wife picked up a couple of urchin at a shell shop last summer after I showed her one someone had done. They have yet to get done!

Those are really nice and came out well. I have did a few and actually dyed the urchin with transtint dye.
