While I was whittling a few teddy bears, snow fell, and winter arrived… The water, paints and my hands are freezing. All this wood carving I do outdoor by the river, and by the bonfire.
To make a Christmas ornament, I carved a hat, scarf, and winter shoes for Teddy. Now I have a gift for the winter holidays to decorate the Christmas tree.
This time, for my small wooden sculptures I used only my knife, freezing acrylic paint and a willow branch. Height - 60mm, width - 25mm, or 65-30. The hat is 25-30mm. Shoes are 10-15mm.
Good carving to you
I am not a professional woodcarver and, especially, not a master or a teacher. However, I enjoy carving small wooden sculptures. Here, you will find my little simple projects, and I hope they help you relax. You can discover more of my wood carving patterns on my channel and check the Community tab: / @smallwoodensculpture

About my knife:
For wood carving, I used my regular whittling knife which I made myself; the blade length is 40 mm, and the overall length of the knife is 130 mm.
For beginners:
Using a short piece of branch can be dangerous for beginners. So, I recommend trying to use a long and comfortable piece, and trim it at the end.
