    Funny, I was just thinking of this type of decoration today. We bought these signs with our name on them that are made of thin wood rounds like this and have have had them for years now, but they never checked or cracked. I never knew it was unnatural for them not to check until this year since I've started burning and learned more about wood. It doesn't seem like there's a clear coat or anything on our signs--is there a special drying process that prevents decorative wood rounds like this from checking?

    Just take the face with the crack down his fore head and turn it up side down. Then it would look like a gap between his teeth.

    Good call.

    This thread never happened, neither did the thread where they were made last year.

    My favorite cookie has also gotten old and cracked. It looked really nice when we were presented this wonderful gift at one of our get-togethers.
