Thank you Claude, Kris, Merle.... I'm so happy you like him. It's a fun subject and a good reason to listen to Christmas music while I work...LOL Not that one needs a reason. Thank you.

Thank you Charlotte. I hope he turns out ok. I have started carving the box. The front of the box is holly leaves and berries. The sides are crossed candy canes...not too imaginative but it will have to do this time around. I hope to do more elaborate boxes down the road on other pieces.
