While I was on Christmas vacation, I was wandering in some quaint shops in Seneca, SC and came upon some interesting vintage thread spools that had been carved with Santa faces. I thought they were cute at the time but seeing as they had been turned into key chains, I didn't buy one. Only after I got back home did their images keep going back through my mind and now I wish I had purchased one and turned it into a tree ornament. Oh, well that is the way it goes sometimes...so I got on the web today to see what I could find on hand carved Santa thread spools and was surprised to see so many options out there for me to choose from. I just loved this eBay find - hand carved by Gayle Roush This is the top view of the above Santa - showing the vintage thread label. This fun thread spool carved Santa is by Bayou Creations This Carved Santa on Thread Spool is by Touch of Color Knowtes And then I found a great page showing how these are carved. Step by step as a Santa Face is carved. By Barbara of Touch of Color Knowtes. Click HERE for link to see step by step instruction on carving a thread spool. The Finished Santa by Barbara of Touch of Color Knowtes. I just might have to give this process a try in 2011. Grins, Giggles and Happy New Year! Evelyn
