That Santa is the old dancing Karaoke Santa of a few years back sold everywhere, with the head replaced by one I found at an antique store in Forney, Texas. I think the doll it came on was about 27" tall and was old and bedraggled but there was that old wonderful pixie-cum-1950's Santa head on it. Bought the doll, took off the head and trashed the old doll body. I also use that wonderful old head on my Santa mannequin body that sits and has its own luxury Santa suit but takes a couple of hours to put together - not up to that this year! Christmas decorations very scaled back this year due to the hip - grrrrr.
Course my little Yorkie partner loves all about decorating - he "helps" soooo much by being either right under foot, stealing what he can make off with or watching from the safety of the couch when things get too loud or bang-y. Yorkies love decorating and all the searching and activity - it makes them feel so important to get to be part of all that action and work. Tibbe acts just like he is exhausted after a decorating session - a lot of which involves moving a lot of things to get to what you want and then putting those thing back in place and then finally you get to the decorating! All those goings on are just meat and potatoes to Tibbe - he just loves it all. And if ever I am missing a piece of a decoration, a bulb or a bow, all I have to do is look in Tibbe's Pink Cadillac Carrier - that is where he takes his loot - not his Cloud 9 bed. The Carrier is hidden away between the couch and a chest and it is his den for squirreling things away. Sometimes that thing is so full of stuff he can barely get in!
He is so funny! |
Wow you are creative how you put that santa together. I tell you Im not even into dolls but I love how you use that shirley temple doll to decorate for christmas that is just precious. I love how all your decor just kinda goes together
