Hi Folks, thought I would share a Santa I did for my wife, she wanted him done for a coworker. He's a little different than most of the Santa's I have done, so I thought I would share him with you. Now don't hate me because of the team.
Thanks for looking
Mel

Hey, I get to be the first to post to your thread. Well, he sure is a cute baseball santa. Geez, he's so cute I bet it's hard to let this one go. Oh well, you can carve another one. What size is your base ball sana?

Mel, I didn't recognize it at first as your work. Now I see the "Mel" quality to it in the eyes. Fun work. I know it will be treasured.
I would also like to know what size he is. I hope you're not going to tell us that he is only 1" high with all of that character and detail.

Thanks everybody, I guess I did forget some details, he's 6" tall by 3" wide at the bottom.

As far as steroids go, Mrs. Claus may have slipped him some in his eggnog without his knowledge.
