Phase one of my 2009 -2010 Christmas decorating has begun

Postby Nanoose » Mon Sep 21, 2009 8:40 pm

About a month ago I started 3 new displays for my annual 2 week Christmas open house.

The first section is were Santa Clause sorts his mail. There is an old typewriter on an end table with a little stool with a stuffed Santa doll on it. (I made the stool)
Around it is Santa’s – in box with letters kids sent him. Also a out box for the replies Santa is typing out to all the good boys and girls.
And a trash can for the letters from the bad boys and girls. I will fill it up with fake letters – the one I have in it now says – Santa WTF were is my X-box!!!!! You had better bring it this year!!!!!!!!!! Sincerely Billy

The second section is an elf sitting on a stool in front of an antique sewing machine (that’s 2 stools I made). he will be making Christmas socks.

The 3rd section is for my new manger scene. We lucked out and were given a real nice set of china figures so I am building a wood manger for them. It will eventually go in a recessed section to look like it’s in the middle of a desert – I will have sand and desert looking back drops. The only light I want to have on it is – like its coming from the North Star.

I will be starting phase two of my Christmas display in October.
As well as posting photos of phase one. Cheers and merry Christmas!
What's pushing us apart isn't loneliness what's holding us together isn't love. Listen to the man who's been touched all his life yes he's the one they call the fool. Where is that savoir of the sidewalk life and the road that takes us to the crusades? We still got along way to go yes we still got a along way to go.

Well that wouldn’t be keeping the Sprit of Christmas through out the year.
Plus I would feel like a Scrooge if I waited until October.
So merry Christmas and happy New year!
