Sunriver Oregon Tree Burl Tea Light Candle Holder
A few years ago, the forest service in the state of Oregon had a program where they came thru heavily wooded neighborhoods, such as mine, and had a tree service come thru and help us thin our properties of dead, diseased and overpopulation of trees and shrubs to help reduce the risk of losing our homes in a forest fire. They cut down many trees on our property that I just couldn't see wasting in the wood chipper. So I saved them for an idea to come to mind.
This is one of my ideas that I acted on... This is a "burl" or "knot" part of one of the Lodgepole Pine trees. They are very cool and unique. I cut it at an angle and hollowed it out big enough to put a votive tea candle in. Then I used the laser engraver and etched in a tree and "Sunriver" on it to make it a really unique souvenir or addition to your Sunriver home. It has not been stained, I just gave it 2 sealing coats of varnish to highlight the natural beauty of the wood.
Measurements: Approximately 4.5 inches tall by 4.5 inches in diameter.
This is from a fallen Lodge Pole Pine from my home in the Cascade Mountains in Oregon
