This is a Christmas Nativity Candle Tray that I have wanted to cut ever since I first saw it. Well with no customers asking for it I cut two of them for my upcoming Christmas Craft Show. This is another Shelia Landry design and I just love the presentation of the subject matter. Cut this out of Curly Maple and finished with natural Danish Oil. I think they look best like this with a blue or red candle on them. The peice has a lot of detail including facial features, the Wise Men holding gifts, and the Shepards staff, which is 1/16 thick cut out of 1/2 material.
Thanks for looking.

It looks really pretty on the maple, Jarrell. Again, it is a pleasure to see such nice work. I hope you have a wonderful show and sell lots. :)
