The Santa Tree

I have a few Father Christmas'.

I got this bright idea about 14 years ago.

Somehow
(mom and Big)
I found my 

collection had grown beyond any flat display

area my house had. 

I needed a way to display all these

guys that I could collapse and 

store away.

What I came up with is what we now refer to as

The Santa Tree.

It's just two wooden shelf supports that I hinged at the top
and then ran four 1x12s through.
Over the years I have added the greenery and lights.

However, the best addition I ever made
was getting The Daughter Unit to decorate it!

I missed you this year, Shanna :o)
