This stupid simple Santa face or wizard is the best first wood carving project. My wife recently started wood carving and was frustrated with drawing the face for a so-called 5 minute wizard. She asked me to design a simple wizard face stencil for her, so I did. Then she persuaded me that I needed to share this video on how to carve a simple Santa with the world, so here it is. This is an easy knife only carving. I do show a v tool, but it is not necessary for this project.
