ice carving secrets: “Special delivery” stork with baby design
*NEW-added 6/21/07* See how Aaron Costic used this design for an event for LeBron James (at the bottom of the article)
This design was published in a newsletter some time in 2002. It’s pictured above with an extra base piece to raise it up from the tray a bit. If you would like to use this design or any other design on this site, please check the design usage guidelines. The design collection page lists designs on the site. Here’s the original text from the On Ice:
“Special Delivery” Dawson List, Ice Dragon Ice Sculptures, New Orleans, LA
Designed for a baby shower, this piece is carved from about one and a half blocks of ice. The two horizontal wing welds are easily hidden amongst the stork's feathers and excess ice can be cut into slabs to elevate the sculpture. Simplifying the clouds can leave space for a snowfilled message.


Added 6/21/07: Aaron Costic used the stork design as part of a larger presentation for a baby shower for LeBron James’ second child. The centerpiece design was inspired by a commercial featuring pieces from Okamoto Studios
