Default Christmas Decorations
These are Susan Irish designs. Made from Basswood and 16" long. Painted with ACRYLIC PAINT. The hook on the bottom can be used for Xmas Cards or Ornaments. Merry Christmas. Merle

Wow 16" long... I like that idea! I've done a few of these for smaller ornaments , but like the idea of making them bigger for hanging on the wall too. Nice job, they look great!!

OK ... Caught red handed, I admit it! Mike and I only have one area where we bicker and that is who is going to get to hold the latest Chip Chats magazine and who has to look over the other's shoulder while we flip the pages to see if anyone carved one of our designs. You should hear the OHHHS and AHHHS when we discover one ... even when no one else is listening.
