Vicky, great santa, it's always fun to see these jolly little guys all year around, it's seems there's something magical about them. I'm carving a bunch of santa ornaments as we speak, they are quick to do and not at all boring, of course not nearly as detailed as yours. Good work, thanks for showing.

Cliff,
That is true they are magical. Thank you for viewing, share your ornaments when you are finished.

Great Santa Vicki! Between the new cowboy Santa and this one it will be hard to pick. Keep up the great work, it's an inspiration.

That's a great idea! Carve one of these, leave it on the fireplace mantel Christmas morning with a new bracelet or necklace in his hands, and see how long it takes for SWMBO to notice...

Jillsy,
I did this one out of a 4X4X10 he finished out to 3" front to back and about 3 1/2" side to side. Thank you kindly Barry and Hobo and Claude that would be a wonderful way to present a gift.
