I mentioned in a previous post that I've been collecting Christmas nutcrackers for about 30 years. Here are three of my favorites . . . King Arthur (2005), Canadian Mountie (2003), and Scottish Soldier (2004).
Oh! You need to come to the Dallas Arboretum and see their nutcracker exhibit! 800 nutcrackers! These are fabulous! I love the Christmas light bokeh! Fav.
These are great! I love the variety -- I guess I didn't even realize nutcrackers come in such different designs. The background is so perfect with them.
@jamibann Yes, I thought you would definitely like this charming Scottish Soldier . . . my husband's grandmother was from Scotland and that's why I purchased that one. Most of the nutcrackers in my collection have some sort of relevance or connection to our lives. The Canadian Mountie, my hubby is Canadian and our son was born in Canada. There was no connection for King Arthur...I bought it simply because I thought it was a cool looking nutcracker. :-)
