The Better Homes & Gardens 2003 Santa Claus magazine is supposed to be on the stands September 9th. I found a place to order if you can not find a copy and they have 4 years of back issues available for $6.95/year too. Call 1-888-547-2147. It's a great source for fresh ideas and lots of great Santa's.

Enjoy-
Barry Bowers

Thanks Barry, I'm definitely going to have to look for one, great to know how to get one if none are available locally. I've never heard of this magazine, can't wait to see it! Callynne

I notice them at Hastings Book and Music Store this past week end. But did not pick one up. Guess another trip to Joplin Mo is in order.

Thanks again for posting the telephone number to get this magazine Barry. I couldn't find any around here and had to order one, it came in less than a week! I was thrilled!
Great magazine! I loved the article on Reasons to Believe Gallery, and to recognize some of the names of their artists, especially our own Dave Francis! Congratulations Dave!! Callynne

Thanks Barry,
Although not yet offically a santa carver I am ordering my copy just in case I get the bug and start carving santa's.
Again thanks for the info. I must be getting the bug because there was a time I never checked this thread now I find I check it everyday

We live in a small town and depend on the Great City of Wal Mart to furnish everything... I have checked twice and the GREAT CITY is falling short! We will have to check Krogers. Found it there last year. I have every issue out. It's been out for years and wouldn't miss a one.. Charlotte

I got my copy from Michael's this week. Used my 40% off coupon that was in the newspaper. I wasn't as impressed with it as much I have been in other years.

Well, Curtis found our copy at Kroger's yesterday and I liked it better than some before, as it didn't have so many cloth Santas. I guess it's a matter of what you like.. Charlotte

Thanks Deborah ( Callyne) for your nice words. Its funny to see your name in a International Magazine...and actually see your Santas in the pictures. They did a very nice job on the article. Its a Wonderful Store to sell in, and I'm fortunate to live close enough to it...( only a SHORT 7 hr. drive).....that I get to go and carve in the store 3 times a year. I'll be back there again at Thanksgiving in late Nov for the long weekend. Thanks for noticing my little name... in a big article. Dave

Hey Dave, you're welcome, I got a kick out of recognizing someone I actually 'know' in an International Magazine, can't imagine the kick you must have gotten (and still are) of being mentioned (and so nicely) there!
Love you saying you are only seven short hours away from the Gallery. That's exactly how far we are from FolkWorks, only in hubby miles it's half way around the world! The man hates to travel long distances. I, on the other hand love it, he won't let me drive (not that I want to!) so I get to read, draw or catch up on some much needed sleep....I love traveling! :

Congratulations again! Callynne
