Made a few toys for GD Josie this year.
Took a picture for posterity, thought I'd share.

Beautiful! I'm guessing you have a lathe. I watch several lathe people on YouTube, Australia and England.

Good guess Jerry. I have pretty much a complete shop but don't make much any more. Been making furniture and everything related for many years, but now have to force myself just to do little projects like this. There are a TON of YouTube videos on how to make these Elves and Snowmen. These take almost no skill and would be a good first project for anyone that got a lathe for Christmas. Hardest part is placement of the eyes and buttons on the Snowmen.

Mine are made from trees cut down in my yard and scavenged from the firewood pile.

The picture I actually took the time to place a black matt background and white matt floor on my table saw before snapping the picture. Normally I would just take the picture and replace the background in post. I don't know what got into me...

I never got into welding or a lathe - just as well. : )
