Christmas overload!

Hi,

Thought Id take pics of alot of the stuff Paul and I put up every Christmas.

This is the "Dickens World" Christmas scene that we made, all the people are made of wire and thread with stocking faces and the carousel goes round (rather noisily) and the skaters go in a little circle and it lights up too! Lots of pictures after the cut, you may get bored waiting and go away*L*

This is the entrance way

.....speaking of Gingerbread houses, ours collapsed! We are on house two today, it was baked and built last night and now needs the decorating. God, we have so much Gingerbread now, I was chewing on a piece the size of an A4 piece of paper last night*L*

When we had first made it, it was all set up nicely, then we woke up next day to see a scene of terror.....all the dolls were all over the scene the trees were bent every which way and their were fur tufts in them! Our two cats had attacked the village! It was so funny, three dolls were missing, the old lady and two children, they took the old and slow and young and weak*L*

I actually took the idea from a little old guy with a tiny merry go round, that played it for charity at fairs. He had little ballarinas that danced and soldiers and I fell in love with them.
