    Description

    These are Basswood blanks for carving your own Santa ornaments - they are intended to be carved as no-see-um's - meaning with hat covering the eyes
    All blanks are of a similar shape, but not the exact shape,  cut from Basswood, each are about 4 inch to 5 inch high, about 1 3/4 inches wide. They are thickest at the nose and taper from about 3/4  inch thick to almost nothing at the beard tip.    Some will have the
    ball on the left, the right or the top and some have no ball
    tassel
    .
    You do NOT receive the painted ornament. Note the
    painted ornament
    location of the
    hat, mustache, mouth and tassel location may vary from those of the blanks you get as every set of blanks I do vary some
    - but a pattern has been drawn on them all.
    T
    he actual blanks you receive are not pictured as I sell these locally as well.  The ones you receive will be substantially the same. You will
    receive
    a picture of the painted one.
    If you want pictures of the actual blanks you will receive eBay message me in advance of ordering and await my reply
    Tools I use to carve this are a knife, 1/4 inch  #9, a 3/16 inch V tool, and a 1.5 mm U gouge for the fur on hat or if I am doing several at once I use the Dremel with a diamond ball for the fur.   I don't use a pattern, hand drawing each design on the wood and then cutting  out the shape so each one is slightly different in design and size.
    Note:   You have 2 options on the drop down list above
    Option 1 - You will be receiving  9 blanks
    .
    - The 9
    blanks you will receive will be similar to those shown in the picture but not the actual ones, as I sell them locally as well.
    .
    You do NOT receive the painted ornament, you do not receive a partially carved blank.
    You will
    receive
    a picture of the painted one.
    Option 2 - You will be receiving 6 blanks
    plus one additional blank that has been partially carved
    - the 7
    blanks you will receive will be similar as shown in the picture but not the actual ones as I sell them locally as well.
    You will
    receive
    a picture of the painted one.
    You will NOT be receiving the finished painted Santa Ornament shown in the left picture, that is for reference only.
    If you would like a few images of the carving process used to carve  these Santa Ornaments, send me a message after you have ordered them and I will email them to you.
    If quantity available is "0" send me an eBay message and I will get more cut out for you.
    Questions or want some different # of blanks?  contact me via eBay messages.
