Default Recent Bedpost Santas

Cut up a few old beds for some more spindles. Anna could not wait to paint the pineapple santas. The two little Chubby guys turned out to be my favorites.

Goodwill Stores, Second Hand stores, Salvation Army, antique stores, dumpster diving, and sitting on the road that leads to the landfill at the entrance and offer people a few bucks for something they are about to throw away.
Goody
Ps. I stopped the dumpster diving. I can find out how to get in but not in good enough shape to get out.

Oh my goodness! Those are just the coolest Santa s I have ever seen! They really stir up something from my German heritage, something maybe my grandparents had from Germany? They're wonderful anyway!

Those are all fantastic. I have to agree, those 2 little ones are my favorites. I'm impressed with how well you they turn out with all the different woods/grains you must come across. Thanks for sharing
