Truly, yesterday, despite all its cold and snow, was just a great day for finding treasures. Here is a smattering of some of the finds, the less Christmas-y ones will follow in the new year.

A set of little plastic houses that have holes in the back for tree lights, I assume? Notice Callie-The-Cat in the background.
Another shot of the little houses.

This is a red pedestal glass dish for Christmas Treats! It's a little scratched up, but that just adds character for me.

Frosty the Snowman, warming himself by the fire. I don't collect snowmen as I once did, but this little guy has such a great expression, I had to scoop him up!

A little plastic Nativity. One cannot have too many of these set in little spots around the house.

Yes. I bought
another. I may need some therapy about these.

And these little clear deer are just too sweet and small enough to add to the decor that is already up.

Great finds, though someone might want to warn your snowman about the problems he might have with warming himself at a fire!
A girl can never have too many nativities! Especially those delightful ones from Shiny Brite - until I skulked about on eBay, I never knew there were so many varieties of the small nativities from my childhood. When my collection grew too large (and not cat-proof), I took the larger and more breakable sets (well, some small ones, too!) to church and set up in a large glass-enclosed display case. One little boy from our preschool excitedly said to his teacher, "Miss Dawn, there are THIRTY-FIVE baby Jesuses in there!" Buy another one, on me!!
