deconstructing christmas and goodnight santa(s)

Posted on by

Sigh.

It’s put away Christmas time. I really don’t like it. It takes a bit to create Christmas and I get so happy when my Christmas decorations get unboxed each Christmas. So naturally, I also get a little sad and overwhelmed as well when Epiphany rolls around and it is time to put everything away again.

I have found over time that it’s better to tackle a little bit of it each day so everything gets put away right. Once again, like every year, I’m rearranging some things. I even treated myself to some new storage containers because some are getting a little raggedy and will need to find other uses, or get recycled.

Today my AnnaLee Santas, elves, Mrs. Clauses, and reindeer went back into their containers. I also put away my Byers’ Choice Santas. I only have a few of the Santas. They are my favorites of the figures.

Tomorrow other things will be put away. This will continue until it’s all put away.

Until next year, Christmas.

I look forward to the magic of the season reappearing.

    I know. I deconstruct my displays a little at a time . . . kind of like weaning myself off Christmas.
