Default Thank you Allen Goodman

I'd really like to thank you Allen for such a wonderfully fun carving, the shelf elf.
I just got the magazine featuring the tutorial, i've been having a ball and my flex cut knife has been whizzing.
Thought i'd show off these two elves and let them get their day in the spot light.

OK, I'll bite. Since I finally finished my home DIY projects, I figured these shelf elves would be a good project to get back into the swing of carving.
I carved a couple santa heads for Christmas gifts, but they won't hang on the shelf very well. I think I have the angle right and have cut back the beard, but they keep sliding off the shelf. Are you using some kind of stickum??? What is the trick?
