OUTSTANDING Blake.
Now I wonder if anyone read the previous article on the Balogna Slicing woman from Wise Virginia or the previous one to that the "Pie Bidding man". All three article interesting.

That's awesome. Congratulations. While looking over this board, I am just amazed at the patience you talented carvers have. I think I'd better stick to my scrolling.

So, while sitting there blinded by the lights, did you get any inspiration for new projects?

Way to go!

Thanks everyone for the kind comments! It was definitely a fun experience, and one that I will cherish for a while. I've had someone contact me about forming a club, an order for 12 santas for one lady, someone wants me to carve 5 ornaments before Christmas, I need to get more inventory at the Cave House......I think I am getting a little taste of how Goody feels each year at this time!

I actually did get a little inspiration for a new project. I was thinking about carving a wooden Santa behind a camera filming a reindeer carving a caricature. Anyone willing to tackle that one?? Arnold??? That's way out of my league!

Again, I appreciate the feedback and comments! It was a plesent experience and great publicity!

Blake
