Default Bark Santas

I just finished these Santas out of cottonwood bark. Each one will be going to my sisters as I had promised them a bark Santa last year at Christmas time. So far I'm ahead of schedule for once with Christmas gifts. I'm usually trying to get things done at the last minute, which by the way, I'm sure this year will be no different.
