Welcome to Santa Gallery '10
Santa Carving sign by Tim Berry
The subscribers to the several woodcarving listserves were again invited to submit their favorite Santa carvings for the 2010 Santa Gallery. The Santa's are as varied as snowflakes, and like their carvers, no two are alike. Enjoy this little bit of the holiday season!
Thanks to all the carvers that have shared their wonderful work with the WOM readers.
