Wooden Butter Dome
7" tall x 6" wide
This is one of my favorite things that Don has turned. The original butter domes were probably pewter. They are perfect summertime accessories. No flys can get to your butter! I think a bowl of dip would be great in them also. Imagine how great your picnic table will look all decked out for a country bbq. Inside on your early table, it will look right at home year round..All of these are pretty much exact except #3 is one inch taller. I added measurements alongside pictures... 3 available, $89 each

Witch Hat and Stand
little hat is stiffened and aged with spices sprinkled on it.... cheese cloth hat band. Sweet little Halloween display..... Don turned the stands in a simple form.. The little hats fit it perfectly. After Halloween I'm going to add a little calico bonnet to it and keep it out year round. It'd be fun to make a small parade hat for the summer months..5 available...$55.oo

Halloween Bat
Bats are stiffened and aged just like the hats. They are covered in spices to give a dirty old appearance. Peppercorn eyes. Their wings are wired so you can shape them however you like. They have stitching on the back to mimic webbing.. The bats are displayed on a dowel inserted in the bottom of the bat. They are then stuck into the finial.. I'm not attaching them permanently so you can remove the bat and add a flag or whatever for the summer months. Making them good to use year round. Approximately 11" tall by up to 12" wide, depending on how you shape the wings. You can always bend the wings in more to make the bat slimmer. 10 available....$65.00
