I saw an article in Woodcarving Illustrated last year about how carvers can use scrap wood from other projects to make really neat small carvings. The carver that wrote the article, used some scraps to make earrings. So I took my Santa Claus carvings and shrunk them to the size of an earring.
My wife loved them. I gave them to her as a gift. Although they are slightly large for her ears, they still look really cool.
