Default My bride's Christmas carvings

Phyllis, the beginning carver, with her brand new knife, has been busy making wood chips fly. So busy in fact tht she hasn't gotten around to any baking, but thats ok i am so happy with her work. And she started a bit less than a month ago.
We have there three Santas, 2 angels and 4 snow men. On the snow men she makes the hats and scarves from felt and glues them on
She has another new knife stowed away for a Christmas gift
Oh yeah she came up with an innovation she puts a drop of sparkley in the eye pupil.

Herb,

Your wife is a very talented carver, she does very well for only carving for a month. Three words 'Christmas ornament swap!!!'

Very cool carvings, especially for a beginner! And the best thing about having a woodcarving bride, buying presents is easy!! You are a very lucky man!

She has done a very good job I especially like the angels. It is nice to share a hobby with your spouse.
