Santa Claus is comin’ to town! I just added this new primitive doll to the Old World Primitives Etsy shop – a robed Santa carrying a Christmas stocking. The sweet annie in Santa’s stocking came from Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm in Pennsylvania (I never miss their delightful Harvest Festival).
Santa is SOLD, thank you!
Although I have started making Christmas items already, I am still having fun getting into the Halloween spirit and enjoying the season. Last night I went to the Great Jack-O’-Lantern Blaze in Hudson Valley, NY. It featured over 4,000 individually hand-carved, illuminated pumpkins on display in the form of dinosaurs, pirates, snakes, spiders, mummies, an undersea aquarium, grave angels (my favorite part!) and more. Below are some of the photos that I took at the event that came out well enough to be recognizable (it was dark and spooky! which meant that sadly many of my favorite parts of the display didn’t photograph well).
Wow Steph..he’s great….Love his stocking and that beard is wonderful…love how curly it is.
The “Great Blaze” looks like so much fun!!!
Have a great night 🙂

Thanks, Doreen! The Blaze really was fun too, I will definitely go again next year.
Very cool santa my friend. I love the ticking.
Oh and the pumpkins love that too. Very cool. I wish I had the time to decorate. Oh well maybe next year.
Hugs,Pea
Love the primmy santa Stephanie. What a lovely dark contrast to the usual bright and airy santas. That display of pumpkins must have been mind blowing.
Pea and Cathy – Thank you both! The the Great Jack-O’-Lantern Blaze was definitely a treat.
Wow! The pumpkins are fantastic! That must have been so fun. I had heard about that event, but had never seen pictures. Amazing.
I love the prim sheep in your last post. It would have looked great with my sheep hooked rug. Alas……sob, sob…..it is sold. I like you prim offerings.

Santa is wonderful and I especially like the way his beard looks!
The pumpkin blaze sure looks like it was a lot of fun!
Debbie & Lana – Thank you both for the kind words. 🙂
