Win the Bowl!

Monday, December 8th, 2008

Magic Woodworks handmade bowl contest!

I am a pretty avid fan of the service twitter but recently my twitter experience has been a bit off. The majority of new followers have been spam accounts or robots. That kind of stinks. So I was hoping to change my luck! It’s real simple. I would like to offer this bowl to one of my next 200 new followers on twitter. It’s simple really, all you have to be is HUMAN with a real live account. If you only engage in one way communication, don’t bother following because I will not follow you back and you will not qualify for the prize.

Why am I doing this?

Simple really. I would like to grow and expand my network as well as give more exposure to my work.

How do you win?

Simple again. Follow me on twitter. I will make 200 tags marked 1 to 200 and i will pull out a number. The corresponding follower will win this bowl. Currently I am at 1482 followers. When I hit 1682 real human followers, I will go to my shop and video tape the picking of the winning number. If the number was #1 then follower #1483 would be the winner and so on. Easy.

Tamboti Potters Style Bowl

The bowl is made from quilted Tamboti and has an amazing figure. Great for holiday serving of hard candies, chips, pretzels, or taffy.

Thank you for stopping by :) Keith Burtis

Annual Holiday Ornaments!!!

Sunday, December 7th, 2008

Every year I design a new ornament. I love the holidays and it’s one of my most fun woodturning projects of the year. These holiday ornaments all come numbered with a certificate of authenticity. This is year number two and I plan to continue the yearly ornaments. Every year is a different design and I create between 40 and 50 pieces. This year I have dropped my price slightly because of the economy and well… I love you guys! The length of these ornaments are approximately 7″-8″ high.

Bottle stoppers and a Video!

Monday, December 1st, 2008

I have had some requests for a video showing the process that I use when making my wood wine bottle stoppers or toppers as some like to call them. I have been streaming live for a long time and this is my first attempt at video on my own. A bit rough around the edges, but I will get better quickly. Below the video is a large offering of wine bottle stoppers. Thank you and Happy holidays!

This is wine stopper set #25 and is made from Paddauk(Red) and Mahogany(Light Brown). These are all handmade and no two sets are exactly alike.
