SANTA'S ON HIS WAY!





I have been working hard on carving new Santas for

my upcoming show - All the Trimmings Holiday Show

on Dec. 3 at the Chelsea, Michigan, fairgrounds - and

finally finished enough for my postcard. It was a

choice between this one and another one with a white

background. I chose the white one for my postcard

and decided to put this one on the blog. Too many

items for one small postcard, even though I like that.

Last year I didn't have enough Belsnickels for my

show, so this year I am determined to have a much

better assortment! I am off to a good start, but need

to make many more, as well as all of my other new

Christmas items. As I finish more, I'll put them on

my blog. My Christmas trees are new this year,

too. I designed a simpler version, much like

bottle brush trees, either with a base or without.

Got to go! I just got another idea! I'll post it later.
