"From snowmen and Santas to puppies, pigs, and pirates, even beginning carvers can make 32 charming animal, holiday, and fantasy carvings. Author Lorie Dickie shows how to get started using just a blank basswood egg and a few simple cuts. Readily available at craft stores, pre-cut basswood eggs are a great way to learn the basics of in-the-round woodcarving. These premade blanks allow new carvers to achieve instant success, and help make the first project fast and fun. The clear carving and painting instructions walk you through the entire process with step-by-step color photographs. Ready-to-use holiday-themed patterns are included for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and more. Lori Dickie is a caricature woodcarver and crafter who displays her work at art and wood shows and on her Etsy website. She is a member of the Livonia, Mich., Woodcarver's Club"--Provided by publisher.
