Strange - Lindt Chocolate Tins - 16cm tall - 1 Tin and 12 Chocolate Babushkas.

It's two days after Christmas and these little chocolate babushkas are still alive and living inside the big mother tin! Mmmmm I wonder for how much longer?

You couldn't really eat a babushka... could you??

26 December 2009

Christmas - Three Wise Men - 8cm tall - 3 Men - No Sig.



Wise Man #1 looks like he's had a rough sort of life doesn't he! Chipped and faded... Poor guy!

25 December 2009

Christmas - Santa - With rough Beard - 18cm tall - 6 Santas - Made in China.


This is my very favourite set of Santa Babushkas... love that rough beard!

24 December 2009

Christmas - Santa in working clothes - 14cm - 5 Santas - No Sig.



Santa will be very busy tonight finishing off all those toys and then delivering them... Good Luck Santa!

19 December 2009

Christmas - Santa Bottles - 30cm tall - 5 Santas - No Sig.


Now why would the makers of this Santa think they looked good as Bottles??

18 December 2009

Christmas - Santa w Pointy Heads - 14cm tall - 5 Santas - No Sig.


Why has the second Santa got a cracked face? This collection of mine doesn't get played with you know, they are not toys... they just sit quietly on their shelves... so why did he crack I wonder!

15 December 2009

Christmas - Mrs Santa - 12cm tall - 5 Mrs Santas - No Sig.


Are these all Mrs Santa do you think? Just how many Mrs does Santa have? Maybe they are just daughters of Mr and Mrs Santa!!

11 December 2009

Christmas - Santa, Snowman & Reindeer - 9cm tall - 3 dolls - No Sig.


I bought these in London when I bought the Reindeer full of Chocolates... no chocolate in this set even thought the smallest one opens.

09 December 2009

Christmas - Santa with Present - 3 - 8cm tall - No Sig.


m
The large one is Santa, the middle one is maybe Mrs Santa singing some carols and after a long look I realize the little one, who maybe Baby Santa... is holding a candle! But why are Santa and Santa's baby holding a Snow Ball behind their backs?? Mmmmmmm food for thought!

05 December 2009

Christmas - Santa - Holding Blue flower & all different coloured suits - 14cm - Made in China.


Now why would that second Santa be cracking and loosing some paint? One might think it might be too tight in the big Santa but it's not!
