Made him a few years ago using a block of wood for the base (actually for his butt, so he can sit LOL)

He's adorable. He would be cute as an elf too. I've made the bunny block dolls years ago.

He is really cute. I love the beard. I am in the process of making one of my Santas now. I am not the best sewer but I paint well so I usually paint in the eyes and I use my own blush for the cheeks and a bit on his wooden nose. Will post later this week.

I can sew but one thing I can't do is paint, except a wall LOL. I even bought a book on sale at Michaels for $2.69. It is Learn to Paint with Priscilla (Hauser). I haven't tried any of it yet. There are so many types of brushes and techniques (shade, dot, float, if that is what they mean by techniques) that I may as well get out my cookbook and learn all of their terms in cooking LOL. I guess some things you learn at an early age. Mine was sewing.
