September 27, 1998

Waiting for the signing to begin.

scenes from inside the barn.... We have started collecting the carved Russian lacquered santas...the fourth one from the right (including the little guys) is no longer in Ct....
It kind of found its way home with us..:-)

A wonderful surprise!! "Father Christmas" in gold just for the event..This is a BEAUTY!!
"Winks" waiting for takers..there were three different variants, solid green hats, hats with green glittered polka dots, and solid green glittered hats..(I feel really lucky..THANKS DONNA!! we traded our finial ticket for a wink ticket..and got one of only 6 fully glittered pieces..)

Get on the phone now.."Jingle the Elf", next years HCB exclusive is a must have!!

Finally the time came....St. Peter was one of the ornaments in the silent auction, his entire bottom was glittered.

The moment everyone has been waiting for...the new for 99 designs...from left to right: "A Christmas Bunny" and the "Easter Santa", "Triton Santa" and "Santa and the Beanstalk"

"Firehouse Santa", "Seated Madonna" and "Chameleon" (I really like that Chameleon dude... totally cool!)
