Few things are more beautiful and easier to implement than filling your home with tea lights for a dinner or a special occasion. Nothing adds more to your elegant Christmas table than a few well placed tea lights. They also have the benefit of being small, to avoid the danger of tipping over, blocking views of guest or getting in the way in general. Use a cake stand or a tray to cluster tea lights or use only one for a dramatic effect. Tannenbaum Treasures has several tealights that would absolutely be beautiful in a straight line down the center of your table or clustered at each end. These tea lights are hand blown and hand painted in Poland. If you want to make a statement with your holiday table this year, try a few beautiful and elegant tea lights!
 Rooster Minstrel The domestic chicken has a long history in the United States. Chickens provided meat and eggs for the settlers, and they are still a big business for many farmers. It is no wonder these fine-feathered friends are depicted and collected in many forms. Roosters are more colorful than chickens and there are many species to choose from. Bantam roosters are probably the most popular type of bird, primarily because their long plumage is very colorful and attractive. The origin of Kauai’s chickens come from the original Polynesian settlers, who brought them as a food source. 1992’s Hurricane Iniki caused the roosters to be dispersed throughout the island. Kauai is now home to thousand of wild chickens. Wild roosters have often been known to disturb at very early hours with their crowing and are often seen just walking down the road. A very unique experience to the islands of Hawaii. The American designer and artist, Abigail Pfeffer designed a colorfully dressed rooster strumming a musical instrument. It is a hand blown glass ornament beautifully hand painted and created in Poland. A truly unique ornament for the rooster collector!  Puss-in-Boots “Puss-in-Boots is a French fairy tale about a cat who uses trickery and deceit to gain power, wealth, and the hand of a princess in marriage for his penniless and low-born master. “Puss-in-Boots has provided inspiration for composers, choreographers and other artists over the centuries. It has also inspired Abigail Pfeffer an American designer and artist, who designs the most stunning and unusual Christmas ornaments. Abigail has developed an extraordinary collection of glass hand blown Christmas ornaments. Her design of Puss-in-Boots was hand blown and exquisitly hand painted in Poland. It is a most unusual collectible!  Santa's Steed As an avid Santa collector for many years, I find it difficult to find a truly different and unusual Santa to add each year to my collection.

Hand blown and hand painted in Poland. This ornament is perfect for the young or young at heart!  When Pigs Fly A flying pig is a figure of speech. The popular saying that something will happen “when pigs fly” means that the thing is an impossibility. But for children, during this magical time of the year pigs might just fly. Chances are that pigs will never fly, but I do know that this is the most beautiful “when pigs fly” ornament. It is from Abigail’s Collection and hand blown and hand painted imported from Poland. I am positive that children will find this delightful on their Christmas tree.

A grouping of finials on the mantel or for a table centerpiece, make an impact of elegence and style. Be sure to get several for your holiday decorating. This finial is hand blown and hand painted from Poland and represents the ultimate in elegence. This would be gorgeous on your mantel or holiday table!
