Barely Hanging On For Christmas

[wildhare]

Thanks for commenting Mark and Sharon.
I am drawing up a holiday doctor, cowboy, farmer and working on the idea of a fireman and soldier. I need to find a firemans hat and figure out what the soldier could be hanging on with, first thought was a parachute. I dunno?

Got any ideas? Wanda

[Thor]

Good idea! That sure would be a novel ornament on anyone's tree.

Charming idea Wanda. Well done.

Nice carving there Wanda! I like the hanging ideas... yup..yup...

For the soldier he could hang from his canteen? The strap could be caught up in the Christmas tree. Or the he could be hanging on to his strap of his helmet and thats caught up in the tree...or visa versa.

Its going to be fun to see what you come up with , with all your characters!

Thanks Christina, that's the angle I was hoping for. Something personal for whomever. If you can identify with it, you might be more inclined to buy it.

Tiny baby hanging from a bottle or pacifire.
Fireman hanging from water hose.

Marcia, Have you been lookin at my drawing board? I have a rough sketch of a barefoot farmer in overalls hanging by a sithe(?), a fireman by the hose, but he needs his hat, an artist hanging by his paintbrush which is dripping paint on him and yes, he has a pallet in one hand, did a female version too.

Hey are you going to join the friendship mini cane this time?

LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one that has a drawing pads laying around with ideas scribbled all over them. LOL

I'll have to pass on the mini cane, I have too busy of a summer this year. Maybe if another goes in the late fall I can jump in.
