generally, you don’t want your elftini ice luges out in the sun, but the shade had almost made it to him

dancing elftini ice luge design
One of my customers decided to have an “elftini” holiday party and wanted an elftini ice luge for the party. This design and sculpture was the result. The martinis were either red or green and came with a small candy cane stir stick. It was a great and unusual idea for a party; I was glad to help with my ideas for the ice luge.
This elf seems to be channeling either John Travolta or Bono; either way he’s having a good time! The luge tubing is added to the sculpture via a channel cut in the back. (Check this entry for details on adding luge tubing to a sculpture.) In this case, because his right hand fingers are sculpted, it’s probably best to put the funnel on the back side of his arm (see where the tubing ends in the diagram below). This necessitates either cutting or adding a small shelf in the back to give the funnel a little platform.
