Merry Christmas!
I hope you were on the nice list this year! I think I was. 😄!
These past two weeks have been crazy! All my free time was taken up with getting ready for today.
My sister has joined me in the year of craftiness project and has completed her first project. She is an elementary school teacher and wanted to do something special for her fellow teachers; so she made wooden Santa Claus ornaments for each of them. They are totally cute!
First she used the scroll saw to cut the various pieces. Then she hand painted each piece, glued them in place and added a button nose. What fun!
I hope you and your loved ones have a spectacular Christmas and a wonderful new year!

The ornaments were a big hit with the teachers at school. I love to make these because they are so easy to cut out. I use a 1/4 inch “wood-like” substance called hard board. It comes in a large sheet at Home Depot for about $9. It is so easy to cut through with the scroll saw. Next I sand the wood lightly and paint. I love looking at a basket full of finished ornaments. I made a bunch of snowmen too. They are perfect for adding to the top of a gift when I don’t have a bow to dress it up.
