    The BIGGEST- The BOLDEST, nutcracker blew me away at first sight! Everything that Lel makes makes all of us stunned watching the magic in her artistry. It nearly,...nearly, made me want to start digging in my basement to pull out my tons of Xmas decor. Once upon a time I went all out for the holiday since I never got to celebrate as a kid being raised Jewish. My mother did her best to celebrate Hanukkah with beautiful presents for each of the 8 nights. But all I wanted was for Santa to stop by and fill that lonely little sock I put up in front of our fireplace. So, when i was older and on my own, I slowly started to collect ornaments and made magnificent Xmas trees with tons of beautifully wrapped presents underneath. My daughter had the best christmases to remember. Even though I still love xmas, I no longer bother to decorate. For the past couple of years, I didn't even display a tiny tree. My home is too cluttered to do much of anything, and honestly, it is SO MUCH WORK! Sad to say, those days are over, no young children around, no need to bother. Certainly one aspect of reaching a certain age, deciding what is important. In a way, I wish I still had some of that holiday spirit, but I'm satisfied enjoying what others bother to do.

      I'm so glad you like it Sydni. I think christmas is wonderful, however I appreciate like most things that it can be to much. I'm fortunate that I have grandchildren and kids who still live at home. I think it's different when there around.... X x

    I made a 6 foot nutcracker out of PVC pipe for legs and arms, a kitchen garbage can for the body, and a couple of buckets for the face and hat. It was fun. I taped everything with blue duck tape because it was supposed to be a Captain Nemo Nutcracker. He had shells on his shoulders to square up his shape and shell decorations all over and big plastic crabs and lobsters for friends. It was a success except I did not know how to glue and fasten things together very well so he did not last. That's o.k., it was fun. Thanks for the video, yours is beautiful!
