Default Another Snowman Ornament....

This is the neat little snowman that Gene did in his you tube video only I carved it in the round instead. Used a 1 1/2 Square stick about 3 3/4 inches tall. The pattern is free and in the WCI Download section. It was a fun little project. This was kind of a test to see if I like the pattern in the round. I have a large one to do from a 3 inch square block. Thanks for looking as always.

Corey

Great job Corey. Mike Shipley says in one of his books that he uses snowmen as 'pick-me-up' pieces.

Ditto on the paint job!! Great little guy. Got a chill looking at him. It looks very wintery. Nice work all around!
