Carving the end volute.
This sort of acanthus leaf wouldn't exist in isolation like this. Rather, it would be part of a whole decorative feature and logically join in with other leaves. A 'volute', a spiral scroll-like ornament, is a common way of ending - or rather beginning - an acanthus leaf, so that's what we're adding here.
