A small project

I recently completed a present for my cousin's fiftieth birthday. I turned a pair of mahogany candlesticks for her, making use of some of what I learned making the night stands. I then decided to make a case for the candlesticks, the globes to be mounted in the candles sticks (wood and burning candles are not a great combination) and the candles. The case ended up taking more time than the candlesticks.  My hand cut half blind dovetail technique can still use more practice.

Here are some pictures.
