Snowman Jack in the Box

I painted this snowman "Jack in the Box" many years ago for my Christmas instruction book. It has a village painted all the way around and it's hard to tell from this picture, but there is also a hinged lid. This display is above the bed in our spare bedroom for our guests to enjoy. You can click on the picture for a closer view.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas!

  11. Hey Cathie,

    That little Jack-in-the Box is so cute. As a matter of fact the whole display is. Those little teacup sets are precious.

    I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

  15. Hi Catherine,

    what a pretty blog you have!! you are so talented too!

    Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving such sweet comments also!

    The ornaments are made my Hallmark, the fridge is called "Holiday Fridge" and is from the 2007 series and the stove is from 2004 and called "Christmas Cookies"...I believe they can be found on websites that feature "retired" ornaments, but I found mine on Ebay. Hope that helps!

    Happy New Year! ~ Cynthia ~

  17. Oh, I LOVE it! I had never thought of jack in the boxes until I got the tablecloth and then found the little Santa jack in the box in my MIL's Christmas stuff! I guess they have been around for a long time! You are so talented! I love your Christmas and winter scenes best...as you know!
