The Woodshop Shed

Old World Santa

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Here's an Old World Santa with his “Good List”carved in basswood with acrylic paints for a finish. But the paints were highly diluted so the wood grain would still show through. Too much paint and it will look like something at the Christmas tree shops for $3.99. The wood grain has to show. It's 9 1/2 inches high including the base. The base has lines and nail holes to look like a pine board wood floor. The designs on the robe, hood, and list, were wood burned in before painting.
