The Twelve Childrens Chairs of Christmas

Okay, I'll admit it - I am a Chairoholic!!

The main problem with this obsession is that chairs are a bit big to collect, so I've compromised....I only collect child sized chairs now!

So for Christmas this year here are a few of my favourite old kiddies chairs that I've dressed up to celebrate the joys of the holiday season. The soft toys are all much loved family favourites, some are over 60 years old. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

The first day of Christmas. This is a mid Victorian rush seated chair adorned by Big Ted and Kylie.



Day two. This is Gromit gazing at an angel on an American mid 20th Century armchair.


Day three. Sweep dreaming on an 1890's rush seated armchair.


Day four. Shawn the Sheep climbing onto a Victorian Bentwood.


Day five. A very special bear - Ted - looking proud in his hand knitted outfit.


Day six, half way there...... Gromit gets everywhere!


Six more next week.
