This is a beautiful half-log bowl blank of Texas Honey Mesquite. The overall color is the deep reddish brown of Mesquite heartwood surrounded by a thin band of yellow sapwood, with a complete and well-attached dark brown bark on the backside. 

This half-log bowl blank should be suitable for a bowl 8"  in diameter and up to 3.5" deep.  With the bark on the backside, you have the option of turning a conventional bowl or a "barky" natural-edge bowl. However, if you want a full bark edge on the "natural" rim, you will need to secure the bark with CA glue before and possibly during turning.

This is a classic half-log blank, split through the center of the log. It does not appear to have any pith in it.  There is however one branch intersection with a small amount of vugginess (holes) that you may wish to fill with epoxy.  The grain patterns from the branch intersection may turn out to be extra pretty. 

This is a GREEN to partially air-dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree.  It has been well-sealed with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying.   It was heat-treated to kill off any hungry critters that may have been burrowing inside.   It was measured at 20% MC in July 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you.

About the Tree

This Texas-grown Honey Mesquite tree was harvested in El Campo, Texas in March of 2022.  It was cut down by the city for reasons unknown to us, and we were happy to help save the tree from a burn pile.  It is possible that this tree was damaged by the Valentine's Day Freeze that Texas suffered in February 2021, which is when our state lost a lot of beautiful trees in an unusually deep and long freeze.

You can feel good about this American-grown hardwood being responsibly harvested and turned into beautiful art by YOU.  The tree was in healthy growing condition, with a minimum of bug damage and a nice healthy girth to the trunk.  There is some minor evidence of fire damage, perhaps from a campfire, near the base of the tree on one side.   It may have been in a fairly protected area such as a city park, as the Mesquite is less twisted and gnarly than trees grown in open pastures.  The grain looks generally long and straight and of excellent quality for green or dried turning.

the perfect bar cart!!!!!
Color: Black
My husband had been mentioning he wanted a bar cart. So for his birthday, I bought this, put it together, bought a variety of bourbon (his favorite drink of choice) and a few other things to make his dream bar cart complete. The mirrored glass paired with the cute vintage looking handle really bring this cart together. It was easy to put together but you MUST pay attention to the details in the instructions or it will take you forever. The holes have to be on the correct side, flipped the correct way, etc. Other than that, it is super easy. Came with all of the parts and tools. Pushes well, even on our tile floor. I love the way it turned out and he was so excited!

Slim, Stylish, and Perfect for Keeping Counters Organized
Size: B 1PCS, Color: Black
I love the slim, compact size of this organizer. It takes up much less counter space while still offering the perfect amount of compartmentalization for keeping everything neat and easy to find. The material is a big plus since it won’t rust, and it looks really nice on my countertop. It definitely helps my counter look less cluttered and more organized. Overall, a great functional and attractive storage solution.
