Oil Can Fire



These are the ornaments from year two of our exchange.  I made about the same amount as the first year, knowing that I needed as many as nine of them to give away, plus spares in case some didn't turn out so well.  These are plastic tube cut to length with laser cut rings to give them the correct profile.  I added battery powered LED lights to the bottom that can be turned on to give the look of a lit fire.  The bottom photo hopefully shows the glow. 
I was thinking that you might find these at Christmas tree lots to keep the workers warm and in a good mood.  Each one is about 3" tall and most are in private collections now.
