These make the coolest finished items!! The texture and color of them are awesome and so unusual. Great for turning vases, twig pots and such. Want to try making a bracelet with it next!

I was pleased with both the size and condition of the pods. I have used them to make hummingbird feeders and pepper mills.

Very Different

There are about 60 species of Banksia and all are found in Australia. These are seed pods, the holes being where the seeds were. I have used these to make Twig Pots or Bud Vases. Under the hard outside layer is a layer of velvet like material - very interesting. There are instructions on the web to make a bowl with one of the larger ones. A friend of mine has quartered a pod, filled the holes with inlay material and turned pens. One word of caution when turning these: Wear a face shield.
