Some Santas



Don't you just love Santas? I've been collecting them for a while now - and I have rarely seen any two the same - wonder how they do that? I have them in the dish cupboard - on the buffet - in the windows - under the tree - all around the house - even outdoors.





I have the windowsill in the dining room lined with Santas . . .



They all get along so nicely - I think they are planning christmas surprises. . .

This Russian St. Nicholoas is one of my favorites. . . although sometimes I think my favorite is the one I'm currently looking at . . .



Some of the Santas are in the china cabinet - these Peace Santa are so hip . . .



You'll always find Mr. and Mrs. Santa together - ready to season your food with salt and pepper. . .


This little guy ins't a santa - but this mousie has been around for about 40 christmases - and yet he still looks so young . . .





Many of the Santas are in amongst the holly leaf dishes on the buffet . . .


And of course teapots shaped like Santa - and snowmen . . . I love teapots too . . .

What is your favorite holiday decoration?

Great collection of Santas! My favorite decorations at Christmas time are any with lots of color. I love bright colors. When the kids were growing up, we had a different theme each year and had so much fun decorating the house. Of course, we were quite flexible with our themes so if someone had a favorite ornament or other decoration they could display it and not feel left out.

I just love your Santa collection. I am so pleased to see someone else with so many of them too. Aren't they just the best fun?
What a lovely display!

Wow you have more than a few Santas LOL. I LOVE the Santa cup/tea pot in the upper left corner of your banner picture. It makes me smile each time I see it :o)
