Woodturning - Snowman for Fall Craft Fairs

For this week’s project I am needing to stock some inventory on Snowmen for the upcoming Fall craft fairs! I’m not a huge fan of making batch items so this is always something I don’t really look forward to. It seems like there’s quite a bit of steps and work that goes into them and I don’t really feel they can be priced high enough for my artistic level. Either way it’s good spindle bead practice!
There are so many various options you can use to design your snowmen as well, turned carrot noses, turned coal buttons or eyes. Using actual ribbon for bands on a hat with small feathers. The options are endless.
We hope you enjoy the video!

Well done. I’ve been thinking I really need to get busy turning this year’s Christmas trees.

[@timponder7487]

It's getting to be that time of year Rob nice work on the snow man 👍👏👌

[@chrisjohnston2449]

yup time to get started

[@1954JDR]

That is beautiful.

[@wardwilson3216]

Nicely done Robert

[@carlspringle9342]

Very nice work Rob. 👍

[@WoodWizardrybyColin]

Brilliant piece

[@williamellis8993]

Nice, Robert. As we all know, stay away from the yellow snow(man). As much help as Harry is, you might as well be talking to yourself. Oh, wait...............

I know we need to make things early. But I am not ready yet.

[@valeriehenschel1590]

I’ve noticed in videos, that we North Americans tend to make head plus two part body, and the Brits make head plus one part body. They use less wood, but I think ours are better looking! Maybe they have less snow to make their actual snow people?

[@marianhrubypumper4092]

What about the hat ?

[@lad60606]

Make the base bigger so it doesn’t get lost….

[@jeanlong4285]

😂Harry is not much help

[@jackstrange186]

Very dirty beaver.
