Default Still can do a decoy.

I haven't done any decoys for about 8 years now. Got my old cork patterns out last weekend and whipped a few out. Oh well, back to santa orders, they sell better than decoys!!!! The wood spirt in the background was done by our WCI friend Collin. Snowing here in Md today so I took advantage of the photo op.

Your decoys are just wonderful. The snow really shows your talent.

Hey Goody, do I understand you right that you Whipped these 2 Ducks out in a week? If so WOW. They are great. We got about 3" in Smithsburg, Md. today. Guess I'll have to get the shovel out tomorrow. Merle

Nancy,
I did decoys and decoratives before I even thought about doing Santas. As a matter of fact I never did change my screen name.
Merle,
Actually I did six cork decoys last weekend. Corks don't take long to make. I find it easier to make a few at a time instead of one offs. Took the rest of the week to paint them in the evenings.
