The tree is sitting inside a large paper mache container that I painted red over black and distressed. The Santa ornies are a cute pattern from Old Homestead Barn. Some red berries stuck in here and there along with some small red balls and there you have it...my Santa tree. I still need ot put together several santas as the back of the tree is bare. Looking forward to getting back to it.
The tree sets on an old crock in my diningroom. Next year that area will be designated for Santas only...ha!
On a different note, I wanted to share an adorable snowman that I was blessed to win from Vicky of PAINTSPOTS AND SPLINTERS. I am a diehard collector of snowmen and this one is just sooooo special! He will be a "forever" favorite. Vicky is such a dear, sweet gal and a very talented artist and offers some wonderful wood and fabric whimsical items in her etsy. If you would like to peruse her shop and check out her handmade goods just click HERE.
I want to wish each and every one of you a very safe and Merry Christmas. It is my hope that your holiday season is filled with family and love.
warmest holiday hugs,
Carol
