The White Santa

Here are the pictures of my latest Santa. The title is "Checking it Twice"

I'm pretty proud of the dolly and the sled, all hand made of course. ( actually I'm pretty proud of the whole thing!) The only thing I didn't make myself is the sleigh. I bought that ( in a basic form) from Hobby Lobby; the embellishments, though, are mine.

Santa is about 13 1/2 inches tall, just for scale reference

Nice job, mom! Are you going to try to sell him?

Deborah said...

yeah. that would be the plan!

I am going to enter him in a contest first-- one of the prizes is an invitation to join the professional art doll guild. that would be a big coup. I'm going to enter more than one dolls as well..so here's hoping.

just entering the contest will start getting me some exposure on a couple of web sites so that's good.

Hi Aunt Deborah! This is Billy's wife, Melanie. I am so impressed with this Santa and sleigh you made! I don't know how you came up with it, but I think you definitely have talent.

I love how the only color is in the oranges.

Good luck with the contests!
