Each year at Christmas time the first thing I decorate with is my Santa Claus collection. I started a collection many years ago and I have added more Santa’s throughout the years. I can’t really remember what started my love for this sweet-faced jolly man. Possibly the joy of Christmas memories, or the feeling of love and peace throughout this season. I do know my collection makes me happy.
I prefer Santa’s that are typically hand crafted and painted. I really like the vintage nostalgia that each one invokes.
I have an antique mahogany game table that I place in my foyer so that Santa is the first thing visitors see upon entering the house. I’m just getting started with my decorating, but I was too excited to wait to show you part of my collection.
I love the artist’s detail on this Santa…
The rosy cheeks and teddy bear are so sweet…
I am amazed at the talent that created this Santa Claus and reindeer…
The blue salt glazed pottery Santa was a gift from my brother, Gary. The chalkware Santa has so much character in his facial features.
The creamy-white Santa is hand carved and painted. I purchased him several years ago at a craft show for $5.00!!
The animal-loving Santa is one of my favorites. The artist created a beautiful face to go with the woodland creatures.
Chalkware Santa in mustard yellow…
This Santa was created as a pull toy.
Thanks for letting my share my love of Santa. When I get the house completely decorated I will be showing you more. Do you collect Santa’s or other Christmas collectibles?
