Santa, elves, and nutcrackers, oh my!

Last week I shared some of my many redbird ornaments with you. This week it's all about Santa and his elves.  And I'm throwing in a couple of nutcrackers too!

My mother-in-law Pat has many vintage elves that she's had...well, since they weren't "vintage". I have always loved them and even have a couple of them that she allows to hang out here at my house. 

Every Christmas I look around to see if I can find any new ones but never have any luck. Well this year, my luck changed cause I scored some elves! And they are keepin' watch all over my house...from the bathroom to the kitchen to the chandeliers...

  3. Creepy but cool vintage creepy. They have lots of character. Don't worry, I have a Christmas village that's fully equipped with creepy porcelain people.

  5. I had that elf holding his knees as a child! It was one of my most loved, and somehow I've lost it! Did you recently buy it? Where?

  6. Love the Elves.

    Samuel has a collection of nutcrackers we get out for his room every Christmas. He has a really cool UGA one that we keep out all year long. A couple of months ago he asked if he could put it somewhere else because it gave him the "creeps". It's always looking at him.

    I proceeded to tell him about this scary doll I had when I was younger. My older sister happened to torment me about her:) I think she was named "Nacomi"?
