What better way to get into the Christmas spirit than to carve a Christmas Tree Ornament! I have a new video lesson on youtube – http://youtu.be/VE7c6B9wraA
This lesson is on carving a wonderful little Christmas candle that you can hang on your tree, give as a gift, or make several to string along your tree. It is carved in mahogany attached to a backer board as I carve, so it is one-sided. I drilled a hole in the side of the flame so I could hang it on my tree (which still needs to be put up). Here is a template – Christmas-Candle-template.
Merry Christmas and Happy Carving! I hope this helps bring a little of that Christmas cheer early.
