Day 13 to the Countdown to Christmas is about the Paper Doll Playhouse. An item that I picked up at an estate sale but can't remember when or where. I gather these items throughout the year and don't really look at them until decorations are unpacked to display.
Missing it's dresser
When I went to put this Kurt S. Adler Christmas house for sale, I thought it contained Santa. I already have this decoration, much to my surprise the box included the figurine Snowman with Cats! Bonus keeper!
Here is my Adler Snowtown - a happy thrift shop find I enjoy each year.
What I am listening to - I'll Be Home for Christmas the Lifetime Ensemble.
