    Here are my pics of my decor this year.

    I collect Angels so here is my host of angels

    I made the one sitting on the right of the top shelf. She has a blue tam hat and gold wings. Her dress was a sleeve on a sweater.

    The Santa is one I got for Christmas when I was little. The Santa music box is one that my mom gave one of my kids when they were little.

    The two big wooden sleighs were made by a friend of mine who passed away many years ago. She made them like a puzzle. They are individual pieces that fit together with pegs and holes. They come apart to be stored. I actually have 3 of them but only used these 2.

    I made the angel on top of the tree. My grandma( who passed away 11 years ago) made the crocheted stockings on the tree. Cute made the red bell. Cute I haven't had time to put the others together but I hope to get to them soon!

    My reindeer collection. I still have some angels and reindeer that are not out due to needing attention.

    Thanks Amma. I have been collecting for many years. We go to alot of junk shops too and you can pick them up for 25 to 50 cents alot of times. Or I find them at yard sales.Mom has given me alot too over the years.

    The red reindeer are some of my favorites they are 40's to 50's era

    That is quite a collection! It must take a long time to put it all out every year.
