Jack Schwend of Oxford, Alabama began making these elves when he was in the service stationed in Germany and happened across some polymer clay in a hardware store. He bakes his creations a total of 20 times and gives them an incredible high-gloss finish by dipping them at least seven times in a water-based floor sealant.

His site indicates that he's done for the season but you'll want to take a look at his very precise and detailed work. For best viewing, turn the music off.
