Default Halloween Witch

Here's my version of a witch for Halloween. All carved out of basswood, except the base, which is red oak. Total height is 9 inches, including base.

Love it, Claude! I did one a few years ago something like that, and karen puts it out every Halloween. I'm sure your's will be an annual "have to have out" carving too. Really nice and a super idea!
