You know it is the holiday season when I drag my Santa collection out to decorate the front porch. I absolutely love these guys...I have been collecting them for 5 or 6 years now and love being known as "the Santa house" in the neighborhood. 
I have 20 of the light-up variety and no duplications. In years past I plugged them in individually but it has become too time consuming (and with an old house like ours, it blew the circuit often). I now resort to a spotlight. My FAVORITE guy is the one with the pointy hat in the front that hangs by his hat. Ho, ho, ho....
If you have a collection of vintage sunglasses you should wear them!
