Every year I make something for my mother to gift to people who help her out. Both are Steve Good designs, with the second one modified with acrylic angels to see the tree.
When I had new granite countertops installed, I needed some corbels to support the overhang. I decided to do the four seasons and this is the one I choose for fall. The leaf "pattern" is from my yard and I kept the cutout for display in my shop.
It was sad to have to cut the big old white oak down in our front yard. We did save the huge burl at the bottom and had it re-sawn into half-inch slaps. I made two special plates for my wife, and daughter to use when they are at the Renn Faire.
