Honored

About a year ago I was contacted by Wendy Mullen who wrote to ask if I would be willing to share a few images of my Christmas candy containers for a book she was working on. Today I was excited to receive a copy of the finished book in the mail, Candy Containers - The History of Candy Containers from German Factories.
The book is WONDERFUL, soft cover with 94 pages full of examples of antique German candy containers that most people have never seen.
I am honored to have my work included in the book on pages 41 and 88, as examples of artists creating works in the same tradition.

Wendy Mullen is the author of another book about antique chocolate molds. Please take a look at her website, where you will also find information on how to purchase her books.

Below is a larger image of one of my favorite Belsnickles shown in the book. I sculpted his hood and arms to look like pinecones.

Thanks again for including me in the book Wendy ~
