Ceramic Santa Claus

This is a ceramic Santa that my mother made way back in the 70's! She was in to making ceramics at the time and even had a kiln  in the basement to cure the ceramics. She knew how much I loved this Santa and eventually gave it to me to proudly display in my own home. I make sure he is dust free and cover him in plastic and put in a box when putting him away until next Christmas. I don't know where he'll go when I'm no longer here, but hopefully, he'll have a place in one of my children's home!</left><br /><left><br /></left><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0RZdUEK6R33MrdwDMMP_5m6alynLaOYGts2a_c_CSwoLpFtdhZaEkP5eZ-jSDffxzXotKw9cJ_cRFv3s2xVNUiAngrN468ru55sil4-txsHUCkDw25UiboyBv-n-0EjNZQK3MEwzi9Mtz/s1600/001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0RZdUEK6R33MrdwDMMP_5m6alynLaOYGts2a_c_CSwoLpFtdhZaEkP5eZ-jSDffxzXotKw9cJ_cRFv3s2xVNUiAngrN468ru55sil4-txsHUCkDw25UiboyBv-n-0EjNZQK3MEwzi9Mtz/s640/001.JPG" width="360" /></a></div><left><br /></left><br /> I took Mr. Claus out this morning to photograph and just thought that I would leave him out....in two weeks I'll start my decorating. I always start to get things out right after Halloween since it takes me two weeks or so to decorate. I only do a little each day and it's so much work bringing all of it up from the basement, the cleaning, etc., and I'm sure you all know what I mean!<br /><br /> So I hope all of you have a great Sunday and join in celebrating Sundays with Santa with your favorite Santa images or collections, or anything Santa related!

4' Ltd. Edition Santa by Jim Shore

I mentioned in an earlier post which you can find <a href="http://dj56v-christmasblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/countdown-to-christmas-on-qvc.html">here</a>, how much I love Jim Shore's hand painted pieces. His work is beautiful. I have several and try to get a new piece each year. I'm linking to <a href="http://yuletideseasonings.blogspot.com/">http://yuletideseasonings.blogspot.com/</a> for her Sundays with Santa, and this is what I have chosen to share. Now I do not or never will own this piece as it is way out of my price factor, $1,999.00, but it's made of stone resin to resemble hand carved wood and only 75 were made. He stands at 4ft. tall.  I hear that a prince bought one and being a prince he must be rich! This would look so nice in an entryway! I love the little lantern he's holding and the artwork is beautiful! Happy Sundays with Santa.<br /><div style="line-height: 0px; padding-bottom: 2px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/211765743/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img /></a></div></div><div style="float: left; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><div style="color: #76838b; font-size: 10px;">Source: <a href="http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.H349925.desc.Jim-Shore-Heartwood-Creek-4H-Ltd-Ed-Santa-Statue-by-Enesco" style="color: #76838b; font-size: 10px; text-decoration: underline;">qvc.com</a> via <a href="http://pinterest.com/dsavinell/" style="color: #76838b; font-size: 10px; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">Dorothy</a> on <a href="http://pinterest.com/" style="color: #76838b; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">Pinterest</a></div></div><a href="http://yuletideseasonings.blogspot.com/2011/09/sundays-with-santa_10.html" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://i495.photobucket.com/albums/rr317/celestialcharms/SundayswithSanta-2.jpg" width="180" /></a><left></left>
