It a candy bowl along with a house.

I used one of Howards design for the house.

The bowl was a son of a gun to make. Took
me a few tries to figure out how to make make it.

Was trying to mimic a vintage one I saw on Ebay once.
Not a reproduction, but inspired by the old one.

Starting to snow up here in Vermont.
The holidays are coming.

Nice job!! Looks great!! I still see the originals on eBay from time to time...Santa Claus makers like to use them. One fits nicely in Santa's arm.

This is a wonderful piece. You did a great job. Is that Christmas ribbon around the base?

How absolutely awesome! I have never seen one of the originals before, so this entire idea is fresh to me. Outstanding execution as well. Thanks much for sharing.

Steve...

Very neat idea...I must have missed this look item on eBay...have vever seen before...the type face and graphics on the ribbon looks like it's right out of the fifties...

My very best regards...Howard...
