Synopsis
Working in full-size is a daunting prospect for most carvers. But, fortunately, some creatures are made small enough to be manageable. So it is with elves. These delightful mischievous characters of myth are traditionally very small, and have a liveliness about them that make them perfect subjects for carving. Kelley Stadelman takes the carver step-by-step through the process of creating a life sized elf. After years of teaching, Kelley makes carving easy and enjoyable. She begins with the blank and ends with decorative painting. The result is a wonderful creature in the primitive style that will adorn your home or shop. Each step is illustrated with a color photograph and descriptive caption. Patterns are included for the main project and several similar projects that are shown in the gallery. This is a great project for the beginning or intermediate carver, Working in full-size is a daunting prospect for most carvers.

    Terrific Seller! Generous, describes well (record arrived in at least as good as, if not better than, represented); creatively packed (in an old Popeye the Sailorman game box, no less). The record was padded well and shipped very quickly. All in all, 5 stars ++++ on quality, condition, value, and appearance. Thanks for everything!!

    Prompt international shipping (APO); tapes were very well padded and shipped in a cardboard box--a huge step up from the current trend of tossing even fragile items into postal bags. Deeply appreciated. Tapes were in new sealed condition as described. Decent value for what they are. A+++

    I am very happy with my purchase! I highly recommend this seller. I received it very fast! The price was great. The condition said, "very good," but could have said, "like new." The quality of shipping was perfect, especially for a book. It was boxed, had peanuts, tons of bubble wrap, and well taped. Thank you very much!
