    Thank you everyone! I am glad youo enjoy looking at them. They are fun to collect. When we go junk shopping I watch for them among other things. My mom collects elves so I am on the lookout for those all the time.

    BTW The reindeer that is splayed out on the corner of the dresser is called Rhonda Reindeer. It came out when I was about 19 and the boy reindeer was Randy Reindeer. I have a cousin named Randy. Mom got hers when they first came out. That was in 74. She found this one at a yard sale this summer and brought it home for me.

    Thanks everyone for the nice comments. It took me three days to put it all up. And that was in between working on orders I needed to get in the mail.

    There are approx 135 angels and 95 reindeer. I don't have the bells displayed because I didn't have a good idea to show them off. They are in a large black iron basket ontop of the pie safe. So they are still out just not shown off like I would have liked to.
    Ooh, la la, Rhonda...that's a lot of angels and reindeer. I love them, and you are a good displayer.
    I have a small collection of snowmen. Years ago, my DH made me a shadow box for pictures.
    I think I will ask him if he will make another to display some of my Christmas things like you have.
    So wonderful to see these. I love them, and to know that you, you gma, your mom, I think...and Cutie,...that you all made some of these.
    Hubby would love those reindeer with the antlers you add on. He likes wood, and he has some that he bought from an old man in France, hand carved...that you put the antlers in.
    Dropping a cyber card for you and yours:

    MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
    hugs, (qc)Mousie :)
    love you, Rhonda, sunshine and laughter, too!:D
