I have come to realize that I like the 12 days of Christmas decor, and crafts! A few years ago, I fell in love with Crate and Barrel's 12 days of Christmas ornaments. Paper mache
ornaments are painted with the 12 days of Christmas in a whimsical way. There is also the set of 6 Nutcracker
paper mache ornaments that look very similar to the 12 days. I fell in LOVE with them for some reason. Every year they put them in their store, for 40 some bucks for the set. I truly wanted them but knew that they would go on sale. I decided then I would try to get them half price after Christmas. I would go to C and B and I never saw them after the holidays. Last year, I went practically the day after Christmas, a day I usually don't venture to the malls. But I did for some reason, and I FOUND THEM! Half priced, and the Nutcracker ornaments. Due to this purchase, half priced, I have found that there are the 12 days of Christmas items all over! I am going to share a few that I have found online, and in the stores. I may have to grow my collection and make this my Christmas decor!
I really love these plates. I found these online, and they would match my ornaments perfectly! They are whimsical and fun! I haven't found a site that doesn't have SOLD OUT on their site. I will keep looking!
These you can find at Williams & Sonoma.
Lenox has a whole 12 days of Christmas line! I love it! Cute cute!
