Santa Claus Collection Book

Welcome to the Santa Claus Collection,  whose sole purpose is to share the magic and joy of that most generous of holiday elves! In this volume we explore Santa's genealogy in countries near and far to learn exactly how he evolved into our beloved St. Nick. Then we visit some very special people who have carved businesses and second careers out of spreading his benevolent spirit. Several of them produce handcrafted works of Santa Claus art, and two of them even assume the persona of the jolly old man himself! Along the way, we'll drop in on a couple of collectors whose passion for Santa Claus knows no bounds. Their Santa dolls, toys, and other Christmas treasures number in the thousands! We'll also meet modern-day elves with boundless creativity. We hope their stories inspire you to pick up a needle or a brush and make a creative Santa statement of your own. And when you're done, treat yourself to some holiday cheer with the homemade goodies in our collection of Sweet Sensations. Includes several craft projects, patterns and instructions. Full color photos illustrate this beautiful holiday book.
