Proudlv.lntroducing the Snow Family-Mister and Missus Snow, and Little

Snowflake-a fun group if there ever was one.

I don't know about you, but

and surprise my wife with them.

Then, come January, after treat-

ing our holiday visitors with the

fruits of my handiwork, I'll move

the Snow Family up to the attic

where they can pal around with

the deer until I call them into ser·

vice next year.

Tht; Snow Family (our adapta-

tion of a Judy Gale Roberts

design) is only one of the four

new outdoor ornament designs

we've come up with for this holi-

day season. As with our other

outdoor ornaments, the new

ones are much too large to put in

the magazine, but we do have

plans avaiJable.

Here's a tip: If you want to be the

Christmas-decoration champion

on your block this year, turn to

page 98 and take a look at our

selection of full-sized holiday

WOOD® PlANS. You'll be glad you

did. And so will your neighbors.•

until a couple of years ago,

hauling out the outdoor

Christmas decorations each year

was one of my least favorite

honey-do's. It seemed like I never

got inw gear until after the· first

snowstorm. And climbing up on

that 12' ladder to hang lights

along the fascia board was a real

nerve-racking adventure,

Thankfully, things have gotten

much better ever since I made. a

pair of the slot-wgether deer that

we developed for our magaZine

readers a couple years back. Now,

when my wife has the urge for me

to begin my yearly task, I just go

up into the attic and reach for my

ready-to-position decorations, It

couldn't be easier. Or could it?

Since the deer have proven to be

so popular with our friends and

relatives (and so easy for me to set

out each year), I'm going w try

something new this year. Some

weekend real soon, I'm going to

build and paint the Snow Family

(that's them in the photo above),
