This beautiful Sticks Santa is handcrafted from start to finish from birch, poplar and driftwood by talented artisans within Sticks’ award winning studio in Des Moines, Iowa. Many of the birch and poplar logs used are actual pieces of driftwood, found along riverbanks, which have naturally aged and dried. Three coats of non-toxic finish for durability.
It features a winter night scene complete with a starry sky, cabin, snowman, and pine trees. Has the words "let it snow" written on the back and front of the base.
Special Instructions

Sarah Grant, founder of Sticks, is a dear friend of Ruth's and calls the Glen Arbor area her "favorite place on earth." It was her summer visits to Glen Lake and the Sleeping Bear Dunes that had originally influenced the beautiful, nationally acclaimed folk-art furniture and art object selections that have become Sticks.
