I couldn’t leave this series on that last post I did, the one about the war on Christmas… so here is an old post that is more in the spirit of this special time of the year…

What, you don’t have a hand-carved Santa tiki???
Yeah, I have a Santa tiki… well, my wife does, because I gave it to her for Christmas last year… no… that isn’t the only thing I gave her.
And on my Christmas tree, I have little bears made out of cookie dough. My kids baked them when they were little… but I added the tie dye outfits…
I also have a Cat in the Hat ornament that I made. I drew it, cut it out, inked and colored it, and mounted it on wood…
And I made this cute little mouse in a present picture that is inside a clear plastic ornament. I should have taken a picture of the back, because it is the same picture but from the rear…
There is just something about hand-made ornaments.
I know, I really went with the tie dye theme during that cookie dough project. The glass one is a fun project that families can do together. You just buy the clear glass ornaments and then pour paint inside them and swirl it around.
Anyway, thanks for sharing a little Christmas art… and love… with me.














Your Santa tiki looks like he’s seen things – things he can’t forget.
well… he does watch us when we are sleeping
Very nice. You’re right – there’s nothing quite like hand made ornaments.
thank you
