The last of the Santa Tiki Bob's is a doozy. He comes from the largest of all the Tiki Bob molds we have made. hang10tiki Christmas won't return until these are dried.

He is so tall I decided to cut off his head so that with his santa hat he wouldn't reach the ceiling.

Then it was time to add the beard and

to start his hollow hat. Hey he looks like a cone head from Saturday Night Live!

Then came the hat detail.

I did the Curve and the ball and

then made the white area of his shirt with buttons and carved his beard.

I added arms down his sides.

To keep his hat from bending back I stuffed the hole with paper towels. I learned my lesson, wait a day or two for the hole to be cut.

Next up doing some carving on his jacket.

More tomorrow, Merry Christmas, Wendy
