Here are a few of My Santa's.. all of the wood Santa's I cut out from pine using a band saw. I then painted them & glittered them.. Most of the patterns I designed myself. The plaster Santa's (ones on the right) I made using rubber molds. I used rubber liquid rug backing to make my molds. I painted the liquid rubber coat after coat over antique Santa's. When the molds were thick enough I then poured plaster into the molds let them dry and painted & glittered them..One Santa is from a wood spool..One Santa is from a metal tin can.. Most of these I made last year :-}

What a delightful post. Those little Santa's and houses are just precious. I so need to learn to do that kind of thing. I am just not very crafty, at all.

Your Santas are so beautiful! My mom loves Santas and has quite a few of them. I collect snowmen. My husband has threatened to throw out any new snowman that makes his way into our house. But I can them, normally.
And your houses are so adorable! Very talented you are. Thanks for stopping by and for the words of encouragement.
Love,

I LOVE THE LITTLE HOUSES. THEY ARE SO CUTE. THANKS FOR SHARING THEM.
Hi...your friend Mary asked for the recipe of my Coconut Creme Pie...
3 Tablespoons flour
3/4 cup sugar
3 beaten egg yolks
2 cups milk
*********
Make a paste using flour and sm. amt. of milk. Add other ingredients and, stirring (it really has a tendency to burn so you need to keep stirring) cook until thick. Add 1 teaspoon Vanilla and 1 can Coconut.
Pour into your pie shell and cover with whipped, sweetened egg whites. Put into hot oven for about 8 minutes or until whites are nice and brown.
This recipe makes a great Banana Pie, as well...just leave out the coconut and add ripe bananas....
GOOD GRIEF...now I'm hungry for one again!! :) Hope this works good for Mary.
