Five in Five On The 5th -
As it is pouring rain outside with accompanying thunder & lightening I dare not venture outside. Hard to believe it's rain on December 5th but no worries, tomorrow the temperature drops dramatically & rain turns to snow!
SO my 5 in 5 on the 5th are taken inside & in spite of lights & flash on, things are still quite dark, but no matter, my 5 are of the happy & light kind.
Five Santas from my collection with 5 accompanying Christmas quotes I like. I made the first & third Santas.
It's not what's under the tree that matters, but who's around it.
That's a lovely selection of Santas. I especially like the last one.
ReplyDeleteThank you. The last Santa was an accidental find a couple years ago - he, I think was hiding out on the back shelf waiting for me to find him. He's definitively a favourite.
DeleteOh, I adore these Santas & am so impressed that you made two of them! We have a Santa tree & a Santa mantle display & some Santas all around! :)
ReplyDeleteThose two Santas that I made was in a quest to find my artist self & a neighbour use to do ceramics in her basement (she still does). My Victoria Santa is really much more burgundy than red in the photo.
DeleteWhat a lovely post! I love the idea of sharing 5 Santa’s and very impressed that you made the first and third ones. Great quotes too - thank you for sharing these and taking part in 5 in 5! Thank you too for all your contributions this year, l do look forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandie. I recently did a little inventory taking on my "artist" attempts over the years, I kept trying different things to find the one that I could excel at but I gave up to quickly on many but this year I discovered why. The Artist's Way rocks.
DeleteMmmm... I love that second quote.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it ... I think my favourite (so far) is the first quote.
DeleteI'm also very impressed that you made two of them. They're all special, and the quotes you added make this a very special post!
ReplyDeleteThank you Karen. When I unpack all my Santas I remember each one's story as how they came to be with me.
DeleteYour Santa collection is so cute!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tracy - this is just a small sampling of the collection which I put a halt on adding more - no storage room!
DeleteThose Santa are so adorable! It is impressive to know that you made two of them! They are charming! As an English learner as a hobby, the first quote is quite kind to me. I am smiling! Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteThank you Tomoko. The first quote is my favourite so far. I admire you hobby of learning English, it seems to be a lost language now with so many shorten forms for Twitter & such.
DeleteThank you Patio postcards.
DeleteLeaning another language is struggling but fun.
My English teacher is from Vancouver,Canada. He lives in Japan over 15 years. Have a good Sunday.
Can't believe that you made two of these - what a talented girl you are! What a lovely collection, and perfect quotes to go with them all.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb, I have my creative moments (col) my crafts Pinterest board is huge! (lol). I am a collected of quotes because sometimes trying to find the right thing to say is beyond me.
DeleteThat's quite a collection.
ReplyDeleteThanks Maggie - it's only a small part of my Santa collection. I've said no more but if that "perfect" Santa appears I hope he can come home with me ...
