| | First Try At Holiday Carving Hi there,
I just finished these two characters. The first one is obvious, a Santa toothpick holder, the other one, (now I'm trying to be creative) is a Christmas Ghost toothpick holder. I got the pattern for the Santa from "a" carving magazine that I bought in 2003. |

| | | Re: First Try At Holiday Carving Very creative and nice job on both.
I'd place the Santa on the fireplace mantel with wooden matches in it for the Xmas season. |
