Default Congratulations MelNM!!!!

I know of a success story I'd like to share, being that MelNM's too embarrassed to do it himself!

Mel just sold his second miniature carving on Ebay for $31! Mel's been wanting to try this for a while, but had been alittle intimidated by the whole process. After getting his feet wet and learning the ropes, he hopes to post as many as 4 next week!

I've been watching his postings and in my opinion, his Santas rank up there as some of the best being sold.

If you're interested in checking out Mel's Santas, his Ebay name is nmwoodcarver. When he gets his feedback, you'll be able to see the ones already sold and hopefully, the new ones will be up early this week.

Just thought it'd be fun to share this with you. I'm always happy to hear about other woodcarvers' success - especially one our own!

Jillsy
