A Cause for Pause with Mrs. Claus

It's the Christmas season again
and my cookie jar senses
are jingling!
I have noticed a drastic lack
of presence of Mrs. Claus in the
Ozark Christmas collection.
This year I hope to rectify that predicament
with a cookie jar
I just recently found on the web.
 
The "Mrs Claus Preparing Cookies for Santa" Cookie Jar.
Isn't she sweet?
She is a new creation from AppleTree Design
"A bit of applause for Mrs. Claus" line.
It's based on a book by
Jeannie Schick-Jacobowitz,
Susie Schick-Pierce,
& Muffin Drake-Policastro,
and Illustrated by Wendy Wallin Malinow.
"It gives long overdue credit to 
the hardworking Mrs. Claus"
AppleTree Design was very faithful in
capturing all the detail that Wendy created.
I found a reading of the story on YouTube
These pics are from that video,
So much detail!
They even have her dangling earrings.
 
And that whipped cream style hairdo
with the little gingerbread man
and holly berries sticking out is
just so charming!
 
She would certainly make a
delightful addition
to the Ozark Christmas display.
 
BUT WAIT!
There's more to the line.
How about this wonderful pitcher?
"Mrs. Claus Milk for Santa"
or
these many Mrs. Claus Salt & Pepper shakers.
 
I don't know why there are so many.
The designer must have been full of ideas!
 
 There are also two different candlestick designs,
 
 
and a stacking cupcake stand.
 

Holding Gifts/X'mas Tree Cake stands 3 Pcs set
 
Mrs. Claus sure was busy,
no wonder she's zonked out in the
S&P shaker.

It's a whimsical wonderful holiday line
from AppleTree Design,

sadly just a bit pricey.

So I'll probably just concentrate
on acquiring the cookie jar...


She does seem more than Christmassy enough!

Annalee even jumped on the 
Mrs. Claus bandwagon with a limited
edition doll of a frenzied Mrs. Claus

Thanks for popping in!
Happy Hunting!
