I found this little Santa at goodwill. He was sitting all alone and looking mighty sad. Dirty and crayon marks on his , then colorful coat as well as old wax stuck to his insides. I decided I could take him home and he could have a wonderful Christmas with us. :: sorry, I forgot the Before photos:: just trust me- it was pitiful looking..
I used a mr. clean magic sponge and that got him all cleaned up.. Dried him off and outside he went for a coat of white spray paint. Once dry I used my magic pen and touched him a little.. Now he's just like new and very happy in my coffee table display. I believe in magic and I think he smiled at me while I was taking his photo..
Merry Christmas to All.
I keep out my normal decor in this room and just add a few holiday touches. My plants wouldnt be happy with me if I took them away from their happy spot in the warm sunlight.
Old books tied with twine. some snowy edge pinecones and a few of my favorite shells.
thanks so much for visiting me. I know your time is valuable, especially this time of year.
