OkPat...

the "peeps"...(i assume you mean "people figurines")...came from a lot of different places...walmart, sears, thrift stores, garage sales, etc...bought them over the years before i started making "flatties"...pulled them out this year because i thought they went better with the Polar Express...

my very best regards...

update...12/23/2020...

greetings to all...

it just couldn't be Christmas without a feather tree...(even if mine is a "faux feather" one)...here's how i made mine...

there's also a growing throng of pixies and other small decorations...thrift store finds, gifts from friends, handcrafted and craft store items...

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all...

Howard...
