Additions to Christmas Collections, Plus


I am joining Sundays With Santa hosted by Maureen at Yuletide Greetings.




A visit to the local thrift store this morning and $4.00 yielded many additions to my Christmas collectibles, especially ornaments and figurines. Also, a few other items such as a pink transferware plate. Plus the basket I used to gather the many small items.




SAINT NICHOLAS, or, SANTA CLAUS

The book, A Special Place for Santa: A Legend for Our Time. This book gives the story of the Kneeling Santa, a concept devised by Raymond P. Gauer.


NATIVITY COLLECTION
Joseph figurine handpainted bisque porcelain, 8 ¼” tall

CHRISTMAS TREE FIGURINES
One ceramic tree and two tree ornaments -- one spun crystal, the other a cream and gold stained glass tree.

ANGELS
A vintage bisque ceramic angel by Homco, and glazed paper mache angel ornament.


SNOWPEOPLE

FOR LIGHTED VILLAGE SCENES
3 accessories for wintery village scene.

MISCELLANEOUS



Transferware plate


Carved wood cat ornament and soapstone figurine, cloth doll
Bi-lingual children’s book, Precious Moments gift mini books. The cats are for my sister's cat collection.
