Santas -Part 2


These continue to be my some of my favorite
things I own - I was an artist in the Atlanta -juried art
circuit at Christmas for about 10 years -and collected from
so many artists -- My goal next year is to put it all out -
yikes may have to start in June -- I have huge containers full
, exquisite carved Santas also , But these are exquisite bought from
a shop no longer in business in Atlanta -- yikes , my car knew the way to
every good shop . I knew her fist name signed on the art but
of course the shopowner never disclosed the artist last name,
much to my dismay - and she only carried these one year -
uh a little pricey -- but my shows - paid for my habit
the little one is an ornament has a leather hanger
-- and these are heavy solid wood
eggs - the large one is 10 inches tall .

Sorry about the glare , I am a bad picture taker -
but the ones below , shows their -
exquisite faces -- The Merry Christmas one is
heavy TIN and stands about 16 inches tall


Oh his face still mesmerizes me --

Isn't the dolly sweet -- such detail -- I love the Noah's ark
on the large one - I also have a large collection of those too.
My grandson 's name is Noah and also -it speaks to
my Christian Faith- his room when small was in Noah's ark - I will
look for those pics - Hub built dimensional ark thatI painted
we hung on the wall and i wanted dimensional animals cut and coming out
took several tries to scale and make - well that is another story
OK part 3 of the decorating .saga - will occur as I get it done -
always running late - too much computer time lol ;
Blessings and Hugs. Kathy
