December Tag

In response to Joan's tag asking us to show our special decorated corners, I will show another picture of my Santa collection. This is special to me as I have collected these for many years and picked up some on travels, and was given some by friends and family. I also now buy myself a new addition every year.
Next is my tin collection. I don't add to this as often, but got lucky this year as I was given one by one of my bosses at work. He gave the staff some "Cookies by George" and they came in a tin. I told him I collect the tins, so he gave me the one on the far right with the cute snowmen. I have a small snowman collection that I have just started in the last couple of years in our guest bathroom (that's how small it is!), and will continue to add to it as well. My favorite Santa's, tins and snowmen are the rustic looking ones.
When we downsized and moved into our condo a few years ago we cleaned and purged, so I did get rid of some older Christmas items that didn't have any real sentimental value, and now just try to collect anything that suits my collections or is given to us by a loved one.

Both of your collections are really neat! Such fun to add to them as you find something of sentimental value (or that you just love)! Will be looking forward to seeing the Snowman collection too, as it grows!
