From Thanksgiving to Christmas I was busy mading reindeer and Christmas ornaments on my scroll saw.
The attached photos are only a sample. I made 73 reindeer and several dozen ornaments of various styles. I only made a few of the smallest ones shown. They are quite a challenge to get right.
The reindeer were given to children, cashiers, waitresses, nurses, receptionists, etc. anyone who helped me during the month of December. The men didn't appreciate them, except for other woodworkers, so most of them were given to the women and children that I came across or who helped me in my shopping efforts. I would wish them a Merry Christmas and hold out my hand with a reindeer in it. When they would reach out, I would drop the reindeer into their hand. It made a lot of people happy. I've done this other years, but not to the extent of this year. I have no reindeer left. The ornaments were given to neighbors and close relatives. A few even made it to our living room tree.
