The Golf Ball Santa Decorations are Carved From Recycled Balls

Jim Clements makes golf ball Santa ornaments by carving the likeness of Kris Kringle into recycled golf balls.

These unlikely carved balls are hand painted to look like Jolly ol' Saint Nick either in his customary red and white holly hat or in various American University colors -- you might not have known, but Santa is a huge University of Tennessee fan, he just doesn't like to brag about it. A good hook is attached to the balls and they are hung from golden poly-chord.

The Golf ball Santa ornaments make a nice addition to the trees of sports fans. And when Christmas is done, just take the festive balls out to the golf course and swing away.
