Default Let It Snow

My Holiday Carving, after seeing so many excellent holiday carvings on the board I had to give one a try.

It's made of poplar, the snow man is a separate piece of wood. Shovel handle and head are carved, shovel shaft is a piece of brass.

The carving is about 8 inches long and the snowman is 3 inches high.
