Default St. Patrick's Day
March 17th is St Patrick's Day. It's time for the Leprechauns. Local HS is having their annual pancake day and craft show this Saturday. Another local carver and I usually team up and have some fun.

These little Leprechaun pins will be one of my contributions. They are fun, fast and easy to do.

Anybody else carving/whittlin any St. Patrick's Day stuff?

Nice ones Tom. I am amazed at how small you carve and still have all of your fingers. Or is it what's left of them. LOL

Great pins

Those are cute, Tom! I did do one last month. Showed him off in here somewhere along with a chef. I carved one last year too for a bar owner with the name of Rooney. No doubt there on why they collected Leprechauns.

Thanks for the comments folks. As to whittlin the small stuff with the pocket knife; I do use it almost all the time. However, you might remember that I recently broke the tip off. With the blade re-ground it's like a new knife. What I mean to say is that it is a different knife. Not bad, but it will have to earn its way back to my favorite. Thanks again....
