Jan,

You could cut discs from the removed branches and make trivets out of them.
Juniper is fragrant--right? So--the heat from a pot woulf release the scent.

Or--if you have any artists in your family--the larger discs could be used
to paint things on.

Can Jeff carve? Some of the branches could be carved into spoons, spatulas
and smaller kitchen serving pieces.

I own something like that. There is an Estonian family who used to go back
"home" and they spent the summer on the island "Vilsandi" they owned a house
on off the coast of Estonia.
The husband made all kinds of kitchen utensils and spoons from the Juniper wood
that covered the whole island. Juniper wood is indestructible ans very hard.
He just spent his time whittling away.

I have some of his pieces. Look! Gita
