Santa collection

At Christmas each year I give Pam a Santa or a reasonable replica. Sometimes they’re store bought but mostly they’re something I’ve hand-carved myself.  Here’s a few of them.

Pam's Santa collection

Since Santa Claus, also known as Saint Nicholas, Sinterklaas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle  has been depicted in many forms. The 1881 illustration by Thomas Nast  to the Haddon Sundblom’s  have created the most widely known depiction of the jolly old fellow.  I’ve decided to start researching this years Santa right away.  … good thing I’m starting early.

Well that’s all for now folks ….

Sàinte mhor a h-uile duine                                                                                                            Best to you all!
