Tom Geiger Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 Cool set up. That's one big dude pushing that station wagon. : ) That is one of their ceramic pieces! The dude is attached to the car. As you can see, they're not known for scale. All their people scale out at around 1/25 scale, but the buildings are much smaller. Still my wife likes it. And I get to plant some cars in it occasionally.
Dave Ambrose Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Yeah but people shopping at Hobby Lobby (Michaels, Pat Catans, AC Moore, etc) are probably more interested in CRAFTING things for Christmas and need their supplies more than 1 month before Christmas. The craft stores operate one season ahead. People need time to build their projects. I can accept that reasoning. I cannot accept Home Depot putting up Christmas decorations (more like desecrations) before Halloween and including an inflatable T. Rex with a Santa hat. That just made me want to put to sea and not come back.
Sixties Sam Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 The "Christmas season" used to start after Thanksgiving. Now I see Christmas displays in the stores the day after Halloween! What next? We start the "Christmas season" the day after Labor Day? July 5th!
Pro Wrench Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 We haven't decorated for Christmas, or anything else for that matter, in 6 years and probably won't this year. None of our kids are home for the holidays so it seems kind of pointless to us. That or I'm just to lazy to do it. Probably both.

That just made me want to put to sea and not come back. I'll have to agree with you 1000%! Just because they have an inflatable dinosaur and a Christmas hat, doesn't make it cute or funny. Now maybe standing Harry outside riding a T-Rex while he's wearing a Santa hat would be worth seeing...
philo426 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 We are big on Christmas and so we have a outdoor display.Here it is!
philo426 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 I dig the lighted guitar Jolly! Here is mine in front of the tree sans lights as I play it every day.
